Lights, Camera.....

Last week both kids went to theatre camp.  Of all the camps they are taking this summer, this one I was most excited/nervous about.  You see, my kids spend about 80% of their time playing some sort of make believe around the house.  But playing make believe with your sibling is one thing, but doing it in front of other relative strangers is quite another, especially on a big stage.  I either thought this was going to be an amazing week or it was going to crash and burn.

Thankfully, the week went MARVELOUSLY! They both said it was the best camp so far of the summer.  (Score one for Mommy).  For Quinn the week culminated in a small classroom demonstration of what they had worked on during the week.  Clearly, Raif and I's presence wasn't the best thing as she spent the half an hour show simply looking at us and giggling but she did show us a couple of things, like how she can be a hungry dog waiting to be fed.

Greyson's class however ended with a show on the big stage.  They did a lesser known Shakespearean romp called "Chickens to the Rescue."  Greyson played both a well and a duck and an occasional chicken.  He had a smile on his face the entire time up on stage, he particpated and rocked his parts.  What more could a Mom ask for?

(Here he is, nailing the part of the well.)

(As you can see, he didn't have any trouble using his "Level 10" voice to be heard)

(Seriously, could the boy be having any more fun?)

(Now all we need to work on is his Oscar winning smile!)
