A Willy Wonka Weekend


This past weekend, our youngest granddaughter, Ava Grace performed in the North Dallas Performing Arts production of Willy Wonka.  She played the role of Mrs. Bucket, Charlie's mother.

She did such a great job as did all these talented kids.

These are a few of my favorite pictures of her.


Poor Mrs. Bucket is wondering where the next meal will come from.


But there is always plenty of love, laughter and "thinking positive" in their home.




Mr. and Mrs. Bucket find great enjoyment in the antics of their son Charlie and two sets of grandparents who also live in the home.







Charlie finds one of the hidden golden tickets and is chosen by the retiring Willy Wonka to run the candy factory.


She did a beautiful job on her solo.




And before we were ready, it was over and this group of talented kids were taking their bows.




Needless to say, we were the most proud grandparents there.


After attending Sunday morning worship service together, the afternoon brought two more performances and our trip back home.  It was a short visit but such a good one.


This sweetheart puppy dog had to have her right eye removed a few weeks ago, but she doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all.  She is adorable and loves her Bibby!

Now, BIG news!

The casting director of Ava Grace's upcoming Cinemark debut posted this on her Facebook page.  We can hardly wait to see our girl on the big screen.

I will be letting you know when it's out.

  3. You're so fortunate to be close enough to see her performances. Your pride just jumps off the screen! I had a puppy who tragically lost her eye but it didn't seem to bother her at all once it was healed.
