Bravo!

While we're on the bragging-about-our-brothers kick, we'd like to congratulate some more of our awesome brothers on their recent achievements! First of all, last weekend we saw Bretton in his school play, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", where he starred as Grandpa Joe! Bretton did a great job at keeping a constant hunch back and grandpa voice. It was a very well-done play, and Bretton was a natural on the stage. We had a great time. Also, on the same night as Nathan's science fair, Bretton received his Arrow of Light, which is the highest cub scout award. We are so proud of him. Great job Brett!

A few weeks ago, Christian participated in a percussion competition for the whole state of Utah. He won first place in the junior high level! I have never known this kid to be bad at anything he's ever tried. Congrats, Christian!

On Wednesday, I went with my family to see the final showing of Les Miserables at Sean's high school (AF). Sean played electric bass in the orchestra. I was so impressed at the production! I saw Les Mis in Chicago when I was in high school, and I really don't think that that was much better than this high school show. Seriously. The set was amazing, the orchestra was pretty much flawless, and the cast had so much talent. It was all very mesmerizing and touching. Pretty much food for the soul. Sean, we're very proud of you, but I'm also sad for you that it's all over. I know the happy/sad feeling when your musical ends. Here's a picture of us after the show (me and my little/big brothers!).
