seussical

pj just performed in his very first school musical. it was a spin off the movie Horton Hears a Who and he played one of the roudy Wickersham Brothers. they were a group of monkeys that tormented Horton.

he was reluctant at first and even "forgot to remember" to try out, but we signed him on at the last minute and he was hooked instantly.

they didn't mess around, either. i suppose i shouldn't be surprised that his school would do this kind of thing in a big way, but i decided to be anyway. they practiced after school three days a week for nearly three months. **forgot to mention that about half of the kids (pj included) got to take a field trip to a recording studio to record the background songs. luckeeeeee!

then they put on three performances, opening friday night and showing a matinee and evening show on saturday.

next year he has decided he's going to go for the lead. perhaps we have a budding actor on our hands?

some highlights...
