Around the World in 80 Days...

...starring Addison as Phillias Fogg and Atley as the beggar girl, the court clerk and appearances in various scenes.
The star was required to wear make-up. The make-up girl was quite disappointed when she realized he promptly went to the bathroom and washed it all off!
Atley was the clerk of the courtroom. I think she is the cutest one ever!
Mr. Fogg speaking to Mr. Fixx and Aouda in San Fransicco. 
Mr. Fogg made it back within 80 days and is holding out his hat for the money he bet! Can you see Atley?
These girls were so good at their parts!
Mr. Fogg adopted Aoudo instead of marrying her. In the book, the 2 characters get married but they were both mortified at the thought, so the director reworked it!
Train ride that was delayed... Mr. Fogg keeps his cool!
Here is Mr. Fogg meeting the beggar woman and her daughter. He generously helps them. They sang a beautiful song and Atley and Addison are singing it all the time at home.


Addison and his friend, Bella.
What did Mr. Fogg say?
Mr. Fogg is reflecting in I Timothy about the love of money and how one can make mistakes by making decisions with the wrong motivation.



Just so cute! 


Singing  the song- Ignite my Heart... Atley was a bit shy here.

Welcome to Hong Kong! They were singing another song here that I can't get out of my head!
San Francisco scene!
Mr. Fogg ended up being detained in jail. Another great song here!!
And the final bow after the play! The crowd was wild with applause!
This picture is just adorable!

And Atley's final bow! What a huge production, with so much heart and soul put into it! I am relieved the work is over, but sad at the same time! Maybe they will want to do another play in the spring!

It's already July 2017!

It is already July but I am putting in the last quarter again. Maybe this is turning into a quarterly update!  This quarter included our family trip to the Outer Banks. It was so great to see everyone. Then we drove to Atlanta. And life in-between.  Wet suits were not even a necessity on this trip! Sunny days and warmer water! I even went swimming a couple of days! This house had an amazing kitchen and we served up heapfuls of food! And our good friend Erin, came to visit us from Florida. She was here for other reasons but we still were able to get together for lunch! Former students getting married! Yup, I'm feeling a little old! The setting was so beautiful! And he drove the entire way home from Atlanta and most of the way there! Gotta get in the historical and nature places when we are somewhere. This place had both. Roswell is one fun town. Onto Myrtle Beach, SC where Beckie, our dear friend and best ever babysitter got married to Ia...

October 2015

October began with TKD testing. Atley tested for her senior blue belt and this was a tough one. I didn't know if she would be able to test but she practiced and practiced and she tested! The forms are very complicated and there is so much to remember. I am impressed with how hard she works and how well she does. A bit nervous walking into test.. Sparring well is also a big part of testing...  She passed!!!! We are studying Flying Creatures this year so I organized a trip for her class to a 700 acre environmental education preserve and they designed a class just for our group! Hands on and very educational. And Melissa and Karl came down for a visit for a few days! Melissa brought tons of her old costume jewlery to share with Atley. And Atley is making a doughnut costume for Halloween. We saw this on YouTube and I thought. "we can do this." Addison's 14!!! His birthday was so fun! Thank you everyone for the car...

We took a trek up to Maine to visit Grammie and Grampy Meehan and then we went to the cottage and saw Aunt Amy and Emily and Lila.   Eating on the pier overlooking a bay. Then eating lobsters...  Baltimore airport!  Onto the rental car...  I LOVE this farm!! Atley noticed 2 fish in this picture! Can you see them? Did I mention I LOVE this farm! I LOVE my baby too!! Near the old ice house... Captain Atley! Atley and I have big ideas for this barn but we will have to do this in the south... Nothing like Maine! Missing Alex! Ocean Park And the famous Soda Fountain. The apostle  Paul  said, “Finally, brothers and sisters,  whatever  is true,  whatever is noble ,  whatever is right ,  whatever  is pure,  whatever is lovely ,  whatever  is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — th...
