You probably don’t know, because we were too busy with it to update the blog, but Shelley has spent the last couple of weeks organizing a Variety Show at the church. It was done in the form of “Laugh-In”:Â joke wall, dance party, posters, men on trikes and a good dozen acts. It was NOT a smooth and simple operation. It was like herding cats.
Shelley was stage managing and playing Goldie Hawn all night…the ditzy blonde comes naturally to her (Just kidding, Shel!)Â There was a core cast of about 10 people including Quinn and myself, and I was one of the acts, singing “If I Had a Million Dollars” with re-written lyrics. So there were rehearsals and practices that went on all week and we ended up with a cast party here at our house last night that went until 2:00AM.
But it’s all over now and we’re all kind of burnt out. Shel has a cold, she’s completely crashed. I’m just refusing to do ANYTHING today.
Dylan has been doing his high school play all week too, so he’s burnt out too and has some big math tests coming up next week. Fun, fun, fun, for him!
We were doing the show when you called yesterday, Scott. Of course, it’s now 9:00AM Monday or something so I can’t return your call. I’ll get back soon. Mail me a good time to call…or you can call back.
So where are the pictures?????
We, of course, were IN the show, so couldn’t take any pictures, but at least one friend of ours video taped the whole extravaganza, and there were lots of people taking pictures which I’m sure we’ll see eventually. I’ll put a selection of the good ones up when I get them.
