You're in for a treat!

Mr.4444 and I spent all day Saturday helping build the set for this year's middle school musical. Don't pat us on the back yet; it's the first time we've volunteered in 4 years' worth of musicals in which our kids took part, so we were actually overdue. I think we made up for it, though, as I was pretty sore today...

Here's a pic of Mark doing manly stuff. (Check out the 70's decor in the background of the auditorium seats!)
And here's a photo of what I worked on ALL DAY; drawing these letters, cutting them out with a jigsaw (yup! my first power tool other than a drill) and PAINTING them. Doesn't look like much, but wait til you see them (painted yellow) up on the stage!

And speaking of stages, this is the perfect spot in the post for a plug for our 7th grader, Kendall, who landed a lead part! She is Jo-Jo in The Seussical! We are so flipping proud, we can't stand it.
And now, get ready....I asked Kendall to let me record her singing two of her songs; one from the musical, and one for Solo-Ensemble, which is next weekend.

Okay, sorry about that "Get Ready" part. After an hour now, I'm tired of trying to figure our how to put an audio file here. If you know how, let me know....

Everyone will have to wait in anticipation until I figure it out. (I promise it will be worth the wait!)
