The Music Man

Well, it was The Music Man. If you have ever seen the movie then you know what I'm talking about. I've seen both the Shirley Jones and the newer one with Matthew Broderick.

The guy that was Professor Harold Hill, I really didn't like him singing wise. That part of the character was too big for him. He was always singing it an octave higher or lower. But he did a great job of it otherwise. The lady that was Marian, she did a great job of her part. Both in acting and singing. But when she got to those high notes, she really didn't need to be miced. She could be heard all the way to the back of the theater with room to spare, without the mic.

My friend, Kara P., came too. It was fun to have a friend coming along. It was kinda like having a birthday party, only with one friend coming with you. She is kind of like another sister.

Orchestra is starting back up!!!!! But that also means that school starts back up again too. :( But this year, there is going to be a Select Choir added to the choirs. I'm thinking about trying out for it. So are my sisters.

Another Post Thown At You

Sorry that it's been a whole week since I last posted!!

Well, to start things off, tomorrow my family is going up to my mom's parents house to spend a while. Then we are off to the theater in KC. To see the Music Man, we will see the Fiddler on the Roof in August sometime. Our friend, Kara P. is coming with us, which is awesome!!!

Last week we went to Bran-town to Long Creek. We swam, ate, slept, and watched movies in the awesome theater. That's right, our own private theater. With surround sound. So watching Transformers was awesome. The Lord of the Rings would probably be awesome to watch there also.........

Well, I think that's it. Blog Later.

Promised Pictures

Here are the promised pictures.
Mrs. L. as Dr. Lizzy, who sometimes gets dizzy.

Here I am as Lab Assistant Sophie. I really don't ware glasses. They are just a part of my costume.

I don't think we have any of the other two people. I'll have to get them soon, hopefully. Well, I think that's it. For now.

V.B.S. Update

Well, it's over, *sniff, sob.*

It was SO much fun! I'll put up some pictures later, if I have time, or find the time to do.

While V.B.S. was going on I finished the two towers and watched all of the return of the king.

That's not how the movie was supposed to end. Saruman and Wormtounge don't kill each other in the two towers, but at the end of the return of the king. And the shire is not supposed to be as peaceful as they left it. Saruman had gone there after Isengaurd was destroyed, had built mills and destroyed everything in the shire. Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin have to get things back into order.

So anyway, that's my intake on the Lord of the Rings. My favorite character would have to be Sam, followed closely by Merry and Pippin. The movies made them out to be So funny. But on the whole, Sam comes out to be my favorite of all characters.

Well, I'll post again soon.

V.B.S.

We start our V.B.S. tomorrow!!!!!!! The setting up that is. Em is so excited, this being her first time to help with the setting up. Everything is looking really good! In my station that is. We'll have to wait 'till tomorrow to see how it all looks on the stage.

Well, yesterday we played "house." We all took a job, like banker, librarian, etc., and played for two hours or so. It was interesting and fun at the same time if you have younger siblings and know how it is. I'll attempt to take some pics and put them on here.

I'm Bored, Again!!!

HI...................................

You can tell that I am feeling as the title says. Bored. I don't really have anything to do today.

Earlier I had another V.B.S. meeting. It was the last meeting until Sunday, which is the day BEFORE V.B.S. I think we did a lot today. I also think that we are ready music wise, well, I am at least. But then I'm always like this every year, ready. Music wise.

Well, I'll blog later. Bye.

Birthday Pictures

Here is the promised pictures. They aren't all of them, just some of them. Hope you enjoy them.

My Birthday

Well, as I said in the previous post, I had my b-day. I got a bunch of stuff, like anyone gets on their birthday. I got: chocolate/candy, a latch hook rug, two paint-by-numbers, sweetish weaving material, a $10 gift certificate to WM, the "Fiddler on the Roof" DVD, and Tickets to the theater in KC to see Fiddler on the Roof, very exciting.

Well, what else to blog about? We went swimming again today. It was OK. Right now we are watching Pocahontas 2. I'll attempt to put up pics from my Birthday later.

I still haven't watched the second hour of the Two Towers.

Happy Fourth, Late

Happy 4th everyone!!!!! Sorry that it's late. I've been at my grandparents house watching fireworks, eating, swimming, eating, talking, eating, you get the picture. Lots of eating there.

Well, I'm 16!!!!! Don't feel 16, but I felt that way when I turned 15, so we're good. I had a good Birthday. I'm pretty sure that Kara will put the pics on her blog.

I had the weirdest dream last night. We(My family)and some people from Orchestra lived at mall. Don't know how that flew, but it did.
