One Act Update...

I once again didn't get pictures when I really should of...dang it! The high schools here have a competition between schools with a one act play...I'm not sure if they do this in Utah as we never had kids in high school there....anyway, North Star did a play called Dark of the Moon. It was a strange play that has been around since the 40's but I'd not heard of it. It's about a witch boy who loves a human girl and wants to become human. I won't bore you with all the details but feel free to look it up on line if you want to....One of my friends told me that the school would be on the news in Utah if they did this play...LOL..and she's probably right. We aren't in Utah anymore....Anyway, again! Zack got a lead role in the play. He was Preacher Hagler...he was the fire and brimstone kind of preacher and also a bit hillbillyish (the play is based on an old Appalachian folk tale). I was impressed and a bit disturbed by his performance...he was so convincing. A man in our ward went to see the play and went up to Zack afterwards and said "Zack, you were so convincing...I'm glad you aren't really like that."....and I have to agree, it's a bit disconcerting to see your kid acting so....evil, for lack of a better word. Now that I've gone off on a tangent...I know, shocking! North Star won their district competition!!! Yay! Last Friday they went to the State competition where they came in 3rd. They were disappointed that they didn't win but Aaron said they did so awesome (I wasn't there, I had to work :( . So that's the scoop on that part of our lives....I'm so glad the boys will be home now. They have been gone every night since we got back from Utah and they've also been gone all day every Saturday. Josh was a techie for the play...he likes it better behind the scenes. I'm so proud of both of them.
