School Choir Concert

This past Thursday, Andrew performed in one of his usual school choir concerts. In the past I have posted video footage of these concerts. However, this year Andrew decided he would not sing - or even move his lips - during the three songs that the 7th graders performed. Needless to say, Mom and Dad were pretty furious. In any event, here is a nice photo of Andrew (and friend Nathan) just before the concert began.

Homecoming Dance

Tonight was Abby's second Homecoming Dance. Just like last year, she went to Homecoming with a bunch of her friends (instead of a boy ... hurray!). Mom took plenty of pictures. Here are the highlights (at least leading up to the dance).

First Day of School 2011

Well, another summer has come and gone, and today was the first day of another school year. Hollywood Abby started her sophomore year of high school this year, while Hollywood Andrew started 7th grade (sort of a sophomore of junior high). As tradition would have it, Mom was on hand to take lots of pictures including the one shown here.

For a walk down memory lane, here are a few links to first day of school in recent years:

Action News (Drama Club Theatre Class)

Abby began her official acting career tonight by appearing in the short play Action News: Now With 10% More Action! produced by her high school drama club as part of her Intro to Theatre class. Although her performance was brief, she did a fantastic job! Here is an excerpt from the play containing her scene.

A Late Christmas Concert

Yesterday evening Andrew performed at his rescheduled school Choirs Concert. His original date was canceled due to a snow storm back in December. Dad was out of town for work this week, but mom attended and captured the following video footage.
