Amber had a bitter-sweet weekend as Saturday night was the final performance of her school's "Wizard Of Oz" play. She had such a fabulous time with this play and has definitely caught the acting/singing/dancing bug...which isn't a bug either of her parents have ever caught, so this is all new to us! We are glad she had such a good experience and made so many great friends. The play was fantastic - the witches and monkeys actually flew, Toto was a real dog, the costumes were great and the performers super talented! Our family liked it so much we saw it twice!
Here are Amber and some friends in their Ozian (as in, "one from Oz") costumes.
Here is Alyssa with her favorite character in the play (aside from Amber, I'm sure) the Wicked Witch Of The West. This witch was so scary and had such an awesomely wicked cackle that Jacob closed his eyes and plugged his ears every time she took the stage!
And this is Amber with her awesome cousin, Juli. Juli was the stage manager of the production and is the one who encouraged Amber to try out for the play in the first place. She is a little bit emotional in this photo because, as a senior, this is the last performance of her very last Wa-Hi play. We heart Juli. A lot.

I've always been impressed by people who can and want to act. It takes a lot of work and self-confidence just to try out! Good for Amber!
