I don't know

if I'll be around much the rest of the week. Sorry, I'm not organized enough this week to have posts made up ahead of time...

It's just one of those weeks... you know? you probly never have them... :)

We've got guests coming this weekend, and the play all weekend too. So, that's 3 performances, plus dress rehearsal, plus guests to entertain, food to make, besides fitting in the normal work schedules...

Stephanie and I and another friend are in charge of filming the play... so that should be interesting.

On another note, I spent all night tonight baking for the weekend, Sarah Beth helped me, she was so cute!! I wished I had a camera! I gave her a little bowl with some sugar in it and she stirred it very diligently for an hour. She kept asking for new things to put in her "cookies" but I just let her have the sugar. At one point I turned around to find her with sugar on her fingers, and her fingers in her mouth, she looked quite guilty, so I only reprimanded her a little... she was very quiet, and then she said: "Becca? I love you." Oh!! so sweet!! I love you too, sweetie!!!

So, anyway, hopefully next week I'll have play pictures for you all!! And I'm working on a book review and a movie review, too, so those will be coming up!

stay tuned...

Play Costumes

The homeschool support group here is ambitious enough to produce a play every year. This year it's Peter Pan! Katie volunteered to help with costumes and was put in charge of the mermaids. So, this past Saturday we got together and whipped out 5 mermaid costumes for these lovely ladies....We put together the basic costumes and sent them home with their respective actresses and instructions to decorate them however they liked. Can't wait to see what they come up with!

Fiddler on the Roof...

Have I posted enough about Fiddler on The Roof? I don't think so....
I went to see it twice... Hey, what can I say? I'm a fan!!! I've been going to shows at the U for a couple of years now, so I've seen these actors in a lot of different roles. Yep, I'm definitely a fan!
I stole these pictures off of Katie's blog... There are more there. But, anyway, these were my favorites....
Tradition!!!! That's Tevye in the middle... Golde is on the right. They were great...

Sabbath Prayer This is the rabbi... I thought he was really good.

Matchmaker, Matchmaker These three girls were very good. Kelsey Klug (in the white) was Chava. I think I'll start a Kelsey Klug fan club....

The Bottle Dance! No cheating here... Real live honest-to-goodness bottle dancing!

The Bottle Dancers with Avram the Bookseller (left) and Perchik (right). My sisters and I have great hopes that Perchik (Chris) will end up Broadway... so we can go see him... :-)

Tevye's Dream Fruma Sarah was incredible...

The Fiddler!!!! Matt was great!

Unfortunately I have no pictures of my wonderful sister playing with the orchestra. I tried but they didn't turn out :-(...

I can't wait until they do another show!!!

If I Were a Rich Man....

... I'd go see my sister play violin in Fiddler on the Roof every night this weekend, (that's 5 performances).... But, I can only afford to go twice....

Dissapointment abounds....

Lord who made the lion and the lamb
You decreed I should be what I am
Would it spoil some VAST, ETERNAL PLAN....
If I were a wealthy.... er... girl!!!!
