We had a great week this week!  It was Missoula Children's Theatre week and the kids all had fun participating in the play.  This year's play was Red Riding Hood.  It started with auditions on Monday.  I love watching how they audition all the kids at one time.  This year there were 70 children auditioning, and the two directors have all the parts placed at the end of about 2 hours.  It's pretty amazing to watch.  I was a little nervous since last year one of our children didn't get a part, but two of the others did.  This year all four of our children got a part - yeah!!

Sweets got the part of Mother Hood and Grandma Hood.  Boyzer was Brother Hood.  Blue was part of the Wolfgang and Funny Guy was a Racoon.  They're the ones that get to dress up and look cute on stage.  My two oldest had a bit more work in store for them as they had to memorize some lines.  All this they do in one week.  Auditions on Monday and performances on Friday and Saturday.  It's a wonderful way to get your kids up and in front of people, as well as working with a large number of other kids, in a short amount of time.  It's a hectic week, but well worth it.

Come Monday though, we're back at our regular school week - thankfully.  We have little catching up to do after this past week.  :-)
