HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, Grandma and Grandma Kate!!!!!

Call Time

Having kids participate in the performing arts has added to my vocabulary terms previously unused... call time being one of them. It's an important one for me to know since that's when the performers need to show up especially since I'm the one who usually makes sure they make their call time.

We've had several call times over the past two weeks- all our activities seem to wind down at once, which would be the exact opposite of calm before a storm. Sully's last chorus concert of the season was tonight and last weekend was a flurry with two plays AND a concert, not to mention rehearsals. Last weeks concert's venue was "The Art of Sand" show, which really deserves it's own post. As for the play, both boys had pretty big parts- this being Nathan's first really big part and he did a fabulous job... he even had a singing solo!

I know the photos of Nathan are super blurry but you can tell by his body language that he was really in character (he played an old sheep, thus the cane).





And Sully was the shepherd.

Three Months Already




And enjoying every minute!

Feast or Famine

I've got a few minutes and several photos to post tonight... sorry for everything at once, but it's better than not getting them out at all :)

Emily According to Nathan

Nathan is a budding photographer and has captured some pretty good images. I especially like these two of Emily. You can really see her personality coming out in the second photo.






He takes pictures of Duke, Sully and Emily and most of them are actually pretty good... of course, he's just started making Lego videos and then there are the numerous "self portraits"- and no worries about wasting film... gotta love digital cameras!
