bragging.

O.k.

I am not even going to beat around the bush.

My baby sister...

IS THE COOLEST!!!

Last night we went to see her music group's production: Big Night on Broadway.

I. Was. FLOORED.

I knew she could sing - but I didn't realize - she can REALLY SING!
Here she is singing, She's in Love, from the Little Mermaid Musical
  
Notice the super awesome mermaid dresses that the ladies are wearing...yup...my mom & aunt made them.

While I loved the mermaid song...this is the one that BLEW ME AWAY.
Audrey and her partner Jordan singing, I Will Carry You.
Jordan told a bit of the story behind it before they sang.  It wasn't until I was thinking about it today that I realized who inspired the story.  

Wow.  

I sat in the audience with tears over flowing.  A combination of a beautiful song and the amazement that that was my sister singing.  I can not wait to see the DVD that was made of the night.
We met Jordan at intermission - he offered his hand for me to shake...I gave him about a second warning that I was going to hug him. (I also have to mention that he is a honey.  Last night and the other times I've seen them sing, he always offers Audrey a hand when climbing up and down from the boxes they perform on.  So sweet!)

Other favorites of the night...
the Wicked Medley 

It's Raining Men

and...
the Footloose Medley

It was an awesome night & we are all SO proud of Audrey.
