The Sky Is Falling!

It seems like this spring was the time for plays in our family.  During one month, each of our kids was involved in a school play.  Zach's school did a fairy tale themed play and he got to be Chicken Little.

Most of the kids got to dress up as Princesses and easy characters.  Chicken Little was a little difficult for us to design up a costume for, especcially living in a small town without any beloved craft stores.

But Chicken Little loved his costume, especially the rubber glove feet so it all worked out good.  And he did an amazing job!  Can't wait to see him in more plays in the next few years.

"I Am That Merry Wanderer of the Night"

Josh's middle school put on a production of Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream this spring.  I was shocked when Josh came home and said he had received the role of Puck.  This was his first play and it was Shakespeare....  I could only imagine what it was going to be like.

But I have to admit, I was completely AMAZED!  They did a wonderful job and Josh put everything into his role and handled the tough lines perfectly.

He did a great job and I wish I could have recorded the play to enjoy again and again.

I know he's excited to have joined the great Thespian tradition in our home and there will be many more productions in the future.
