Well I have to say that this summer is probably going to be the death of me.... IF you can die of fun and excitement!!!! :D A little catch-up first though...........
Our "Beauty and the Beast" production was AMAZING, and I miss all of my kids so stinkin' much! Teaching 4 weeks of vocal/musical theater workshops this summer, then gearing up for the fall theater classes, and really looking forward to helping direct "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" next spring!! I LOVE MYJOB!!!!!!!!! :D
CENTER STAGE YOUTH PERFORMERS!!!
GASTON and his SILLY GIRLS :)
Neal is in a total happy place when it comes to his job :) He has just enough responsibility, recognition, and fun to be completely satisfied. And MAN does he look good all dressed up and important-like! ;) He really is the best daddy ever, too. As soon as he gets home, I may as well not exist in Delia's eyes! She just follows him around and jumps/climbs/clings all over him. From the looks of it, Afifa is going to be JUST as much of a daddy's girl.....now how fair is that?! lol She gives him all her biggest smiles, and makes the cutest happy-noises when she sees him. She will dive out of my arms towards him, no matter HOW far away he is! We've had some almost-dropped incidents because I wasn't prepared for her launches :) lol These pics were taken in May....



My lil sister Melissa graduated from Star Valley High School the end of May, which I was so happy to attend, then moved in with me for the summer! We had a wild party at my house that consisted of my BIG sister Amy, Amy's bf, my dad, brothers Daniel, Aaron, Samuel, and baby sister Katherine (turning 9 TODAY, actually). We celebrated Aaron turning 13 and Samuel turning 11, AND I had my studio recital, all that same weekend! My excitement over being with so much family totally overruled any underlying stress, thank GOODNESS! lol


I'm going to have to post the rest in other posts....too much for just one! lol
Look for Summer: PART II :)
