This weekend Elise and Amy had the fun of joining the other Middle School students in performing the play "Keeper of the Tales." The play was a retelling of several stories from the 1001 Arabian-Nights.
The whole cast

Elise (2nd from left) and Amy (on right) with a couple of other "Marketplace Sellers," all prepared to walk up the aisles to the stage, offering fruit for sale
Elise and Amy had small speaking parts, and front-row seats for the rest of the play as they posed as merchants at the bazaar
Amy (on far left) was cast as a servant of the princess
Elise (2nd from right) played the part of a rich merchant's servant
Barbara also had the delight of working with this group of 5 students weekly before the play, to help them to learn their lines and plot their scene. It was great to get to know some of the students, and having a small part in the process made the play all the more fun to watch.
We'll look forward to next year's production!

What fun - thanks for the great photos!
What great costumes and set! Amy and Lise look great! Are those bananas from your backyard???
yes, we have no bananas! ;o) backyard?!?! what's that?
Who did sew all of those costumes? They're wonderful! The girls are getting more beautiful every time you send a new picture. It seems that their new life is agreeing with them well. I'm so glad to see them energetically joining in and being part of the things going on around them, but we sure miss all of you here!
Love,
Miranda
