Today was a great day! I tried out for A Christmas Carol that is put on here in my city. I was in it last year with my daughters. It really is a pretty big deal. We play at a huge theater for about 8000 people. I tried out last year on a whim and ended up getting a speaking part. I always knew I enjoyed acting but I thought I was too old (I am 35). So today I tried out again. I really would love a dancing / acting part. We'll see. My auditions went really well. Tomorrow my daughters are trying out. Two of them are not feeling well at all tonight, so if you read this please pray that they will fell better by tomorrow. My oldest daughter was supposed to try out today with me, but she was too ill.
After auditions, I came home and did some baking. First I made some Pumpkin Spice Muffins I saw on a blog somewhere else. They are only 2 Weight Watcher points per muffin so I can eat them. I'll post the recipe below. I also am making some white bread for the kids. I love homemade bread and so do the kids. Too bad I can't have any.
Pumkin Spice Muffins - Make 24-30

UPDATE: Even though they are still sick, the girls were able to try out on Sunday. We were called on Monday and we were all asked to be in the play! My two youngest were even asked to be dancers. We start rehersals on Monday, October 13, 2008. |
