Addams Family

Baylie decided to try a new adventure and auditon for the school musical - The Addams Family. She was very nervous and we were proud of her for going for it. She ended up in the role of an ancestor which gave her a great introduction into musical theater.

Taking a bow.
The Bailey girls were in the play with her. Carolyn was also an Ancestor while Kaitlyn and Natalie were in the orchestra.
Sister Bailey's brother and his wife came as did some of Carolyn's friends from the library. 
The Choreys, Andersons, and Brusins came out to support.
Savannah Stevenson and Baylie with their social studies teacher Mr. Walker who also had a cameo as Cousin It.
A couple of sweet friends from seminary came to support their classmates even though they go to a different school.
What in the world?!
The cast members that were also in choir.
It was fun for me to run into some of my former students. They are growing up so fast!
One of Baylie's favorite teachers and a powerful mentor is Tania Turner, her elementary school choir teacher. Her husband, Frank, is Baylie's high school choir teacher. She loves him too. They are going to have a baby very soon.
The play took A LOT of time and work. She said she never wanted to do it again. But after the first performance, she was hooked and now says she can't wait to do it again.

And I just have to point out that Baylie was one of only two students that didn't thank their family in the bios. I'm not bitter...
