Last night Momo, Joy and Zach watched Joey’s final play as a high school student. Tonight the Ardiles and I watched Joey’s final show as a high school thespian. The play left a great many questions unanswered regarding the plot. Joey may have even been the bad guy, hard to tell. I do know this much, joey did a fantastic job with his character. Check out more photos of the performance after the link.

Zach, Joey and Keely all did a great job in the musical tonight. It was a great night with tons of friends and family coming to watch them perform. A whole gang from Redeemer Iowa who we have bonded with over the last few years on BEAMM trips came down in support as well. Check out some of the pictures below. (more…)

Tonight we will finally get to see the results of hard work by Zach Lutz, Joey Kennedy and Keely McCoy when the curtains open for Seussical The Musical. The event will take place at Spring Hill High School. Laura and I are very excited to attend after seeing the quality of productions they put on last year with Alice and Wonderland. Great job guys!

While you went about your business Saturday morning you may have been unaware that a Tennis championship of micro proportions was being played. On one side of the court was Jacob Vos, plays tennis well, knows the rules and terms, in shape. On the other side of the court was Brian, plays tennis poorly, knows some rules and some terms with British accent, out of shape. In the first set Brian won 6-1. Of course Jacob was required to have two hands on the racket at all time (even serving) but lets not use that as an excuse. All you need to know is I beat him fair and square. Well maybe not fair, but square since I’m sure that is a real qualifier.

In the second game Jacob was freed to play normal and went on to win 6-1. He’s good. When his serves were in I felt like I was hitting a brick trying to return it. The only redeeming aspect of this second set was that I aced him. Meaning I served a ball that he could not even get a racket on. I’ll never be able to accomplish a serve like this again. If you play tennis you have until August 27th to challenge Jacob. If you do come ready, come with a British accent and be prepared to cheat or lose.

Here is some video from our first two days in Texas, we go outside, hunt deer and eat Mexican, stike that, El Salvadorian food.

As promised here is video of April’s rendition of Amazing Grace on the Harp. If you wait to the end you’ll also see an unknowing Zach being really sweet with Sadie.
