365 ~ 2015: Day 82
Evan's first lesson in the "big" pool! He can't touch the bottom here so I'm hoping it will be just what he needs to gain the confidence to swim without a vest this summer!

Seussical, Jr.
Last November David came home with a flyer from school with information about auditioning for the school play. The form had lyrics to a song and a monologue from the show to learn and preform for his audition. Every since he saw the play last year he had been talking about wanting to maybe try it. Then I saw the time commitment and I made him look me in the eye and tell me that he was serious and ready to take this on! He not only promised me that he was sure he really impressed me the day before his audition with his monologue! He wouldn't let us work with him so I wasn't sure what to expect!
So on November 14th David got word that he made the play! They only take 65 kids and very few of them were 3rd graders (I think only 7!). The smile on his face when he got off the bus said it all! He began his rehearsals after Thanksgiving break and then there was a second round of auditions for parts. He found out before Christmas that he was cast as one of the Wickersham Brothers.
For the last 3 months he has worked after school 3 days a week with this group and this past Thursday, Friday and Saturday was the big show! I was blown away! These kids are THIRD, FOURTH, & FIFTH graders! Everything from the set, the costumes and choreography was above and beyond anything I imagined it would be. These kids were amazing, the maturity and professionalism they showed was impressive. I cannot wait to get my video so I can watch them again!
I was able to capture a couple of video clips of David's solos! You can't miss him, he's the littlest little monkey!

365 ~ 2015: Day 80
Not in a house, not with a mouse
Not here or there, not anywhere
I do not like green eggs and ham
I do not like them, Sam-I-Am

Happy St. Paddy's Day
I know some people may consider St. Patrick's day a "phone it in" holiday...but not in this family! We rock it and with style. The Irish music is playing and the corned beef is plentiful! Oh and the Bailey's....we can't forget about the homemade Bailey's!

| My little Shamrocks! |
 |
 |
| We like to have a little fun...it's easy to do with the consumption of all the Guinness! |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| McIntyre's! |
 |
 |
| Up to Shenanigans! |
 |
 |
 |
| It wouldn't be St. Patrick's Day without the green wig! |
