Introducing...

Willy Wonka's cutest squirrel....Jordyn Teichert!  I LOVE this makeup but it didn't love her.  Saturday morning after waking up from a long rest, she looked more like a chipmunk than a squirrel thanks to a bad allergic reaction to the costume makeup.  Her face was swollen, itchy, and irritated and with only a few hours until the Matinee performance we had to act fast.  Benadryl left her face looking much better but she couldn't hide her tired eyes on stage.  I thought she may even fall asleep in the chocolate river at one point but she perked up a bit and made it through.  The evening performance went much better, I think she must've caught her second wind!  Anyway, no more costume makeup, just a bit of hypoallergenic powder, white acrylic paint for her eyes and a big black dab of makeup on her nose and she's good to go for another 3 nights! 
What an experience this has been for Jordyn!  She has her last 3 performances this week which will make a grand total 7 performances and it is one adorable production!   

Doesn't this guy make a great Willy Wonka....freaky eyes and all? 
Many more pictures to come!!
Jeselyn and Jordyn!

I LOVE these costumes--thank goodness I didn't have to sew my own!

Jordyn and Jeselyn with one of the Oompa Loompas!

Jordyn has made lots of new friends--one of the best parts of partcipating in the play.

Alley and Jordyn-  Jordyn adores Alley and thinks they are best friends (even though Alley is "12")  It's perfect though because Jordyn thinks She's "12"!

The adorable Oompa Loompas!
