Jonathan Won at the Opry!

Hey Friends!

I wanted to share some good news with you!  Remember the weekend before last when I told you that Jonathan didn’t win the weekly Talent Search at the Ky Opry?

I shared it in my Sunday Encouragement post.

Well, Jonathan went back to the Ky Opry this past weekend while I was flying home from San Francisco.  Cy took him just for the day on Saturday.

It was so hard for me to miss it, but I was glad he was able to go.  He needed to be one of the weekly winners to make it to the Elimination Rounds and advance further in the competition.

Well, guess what?!

Not only was he the weekly winner in his division, Juniors, but he was also the Overall winner of the night, AND the People’s Choice Winner!

Woohooo!!!

And can you believe this mama missed it?!

Well, I am so glad they video the performances and put them on youtube for me to enjoy.

I wanted to share his performance with you.

We are headed back to the Kentucky Opry on April 19th for the Elmination Rounds.  You can bet your bottom dollar I will be there!  Smile

 

 

Thanks for letting me share {okay, brag} about my boy!!

Have a blessed day!!!
