Hey "Miss" DJ Put a Record On

Kendall spent last Thursday and Friday on a field trip to JA Biztown. Biztown is a town that is run by 5th graders for 2 days. The town is fully equipped with a mayor, a bank, a pet store, a restaurant, a grocery, and, of course, a radio station. And we all know that you can't have a town without music, unless, you don't allow dancing in town, but that is a whole other post. All jobs are held by the 5th graders. Before jobs were given to the students, they had to go through job interviews. Kendall was so worried about her outfit for the interview. I was in ATL the night before the interview and I got several calls related to the perfect interview outfit. When she arrived at Bebe's on the afternoon after the interview, she did not talk about the interview, she only talked about the stress of picking the perfect outfit. (But Bebe says that is a good thing because appearance does count for a lot in an interview based on what her friend Mrs. Louise said.) Thankfully, the outfit was a success and she was given a PERFECT job...Guess who the awesome DJ for the town was???

That's right...Kendall...or Tay-Tay as she is known to her 5th grade fans. Thanks for the cool nickname Baby Dane.

She spun all kinds of tunes, had to read (and sing) radio announcements and she decided after 2 days that this could be a career that she would consider.

When trying to decide what to wear to play the role of a DJ, I suggested her Bon Jovi concert t-shirt and jeans. She thought she was WAY COOL!!!!

Here she is singing the Novacopy ad to the tune of Footloose.

Kendall had to "come back from her break" early because her partner, Isaac, had way too much dead-air time.

I was told by several moms who attended the trip that Kendall was fabulous at her job. Of course she was fabulous...her mom has a blog all about music and karaoke...this girl was raised right!!! She has everything from ABBA to Usher on her ip*d.

The whole radio team is below which included reporters, recording engineers, advertising execs, CEO and CFO for the radio station. Lil' Nanny is standing next to Kendall...Tay-Tay. Lil' Nanny was a reporter.

Tay-Tay also received the "Citizen of the Day" award from Mayer Cayden M. Way to go, Tay-Tay!!!

So what do you become when your rock star career stalls? A DJ. Because after all, music makes the people come together. And now she has experience to add to her resume!!!!!!!!!!

How awesome is that!!! She looks very comfortable. I am not sure why we would ever doubt that with you as her mom! :)
