A True Show Stopper!







This weekend was a whirlwind to say the least, we may actually be bored this week! Thursday night was Jake's first performance in the Miss Saigon opener! The entire cast was amazing from start to finish, singing, dancing, keeping an eye on Jake, and making us all feel welcome, plus they paid him an extra special visit at his school on Friday to sing with his class and share cookies. Jake was overjoyed to take part in the musical! Friday was his second performance and he got a surprise visit from Aunt Laurie, Nana and Papa who came up just to see him! Today was the last performance, his best buddy stayed to watch, and they both were called on stage for the curtain call. It was so special, something neither Jen or I will ever forget, and I don't think the boys will either. The boys took lots of pictures with the cast and had them sign the backs of their shirts for a keepsake. I think it is easy to say that the music is now playing on both our IPods and they boys are hooked, they are asking when they get back on the stage! We might have future thespians on our hands, I love it!

I'm so proud of both of them! To have the courage to get up on stage like that is just amazing...and to be completely unfazed by it is even more amazing! I can't wait to see what they'll do next!

It was fantastic! Congratulations Jake & SEth! I had so much fun watching you up there! You looked both little and big! Big for being on stage all by yourself, and small compared to those High Schoolers!!!
