Photo shoot




Here are the girls getting ready for photo taking. Carole is pretending to be Jafar from "Aladdin" in the top photo. But that's how she looks when she's mad at me.

Rehearsal Day

Today we rehearsed for the BIG show tomorrow. This is definitely the biggest stage & arena I've ever sang at. It has the capacity for 17,000 people. I tried to take a photo but the place was huge. Anyway all that to say sound check sounded like mush. All the other singers were complaining about the sound except for me because I know it's useless to try & get a good sound because of the size of the room. (Me & my vast experience.)
Anyway, here is the website of the actual arena where we are singing tomorrow.

I'll try to take pictures of all of us tomorrow.

Ok, guys, cross your fingers & toes for me

I have HUGE show coming up & I feel too "small" for it. Lately I've had stage fright & it's really annoying. Anyway, pray or wish me luck: no voice cracks or frog notes please & no rapid heart activity (nervousness), TYVM!!!

La la la la la la la la................................Croak. NOT!

I Survived


Yes, we made it through 9 days without Daddy. Leila had a high fever for a day until I forced her to take kids buferin. I had to wrap her up like a little (big) baby in the stroller & take her to pick up the kids at school. She was a cuddly little thing all day.
So Daddy is back & sleeping all day. I think he only managed a few hours of sleep a night. I managed lots of sleep each night, no one to watch movies with, but I like going to bed early.
I've been collecting singers & trying to get a vocal group together to do a presentation for possible jobs. I hope this works out & I get lots of work. That would be cool to have so much work I have to bring Angie over to help me out with singing. (wish wish)
Anyway, I have nothing major happening so I'll go now.

In the words of PINK

I'll keep you locked in my head until we meet again.
I won't forget you my friend,
What happened?
I love that song!!! Leila does too.
Well that's all I have to say about today.

10 days alone.....

Daddy is gone again for another sound engineering job. So far we have survived the first 4 days. I have nothing to write about in my blog lately. Nothing's been happening except I got hooked up to skype & talked to my brother Tom for the first time in about 4 years. I'm not very good on the phone but it was great to talk.
It's been raining like crazy for a few days & the kids have had to stay home with baby sitters while I worked on the weekends, I guess summer is leaving us.
Has anyone heard from Marisa lately? I just realized it's been months since she wrote me an email. If anyone knows how she's doing, let me know.
Anyways, this is turning into blathering so I'll go now.
Cheers.

Ambie is staying at our place before her trip. Here she is trying to look all pretty for me. hehehe. No, she's going out to visit a friend.
Ambie was so sweet & watched the kids for me while I worked & while Mac & I went out on our anniversary.

Hope you have a nice trip. It was fun having you over. The kids had lots of fun playing with Jude too.

(This is a few days old: I called her on skype & she arrived in one piece.)
