The Guerin musical crew did a great job with their production of Jesus Christ Superstar last evening and we had a wonderful time beginning to end.
The first photo is my friend Barb and her third daughter, Julie. (You might remember Barb's photos from the ICC Italy trip last summer as she was one of the chaperones and her second daughter, Maria, and Matt have been good friends in the choir. Barb's family also goes to SEAS.) Last night Barb was in charge of arranging, putting ribbons on, and selling the performance roses, so I took this photo as it is always especially rewarding to get both friends and flowers in one photo! Barb is a Guerin Wonder Woman...she volunteers so much time and so much talent to the school that it sends my mind reeling...we are all better for knowing her and her family.
These next photos are from the presentation of the signed posters and gift certificates to the choir directors after the play...could not, obviously take photos during the play, and afterward I was too busy chatting with everyone to remember to take photos...I think most everyone is visible except Maria. Barb's oldest daughter, Meggie, is the girl with the microphone doing the presentation in the center of the stage.
And, last but not least, is a photo of Kristen and Samantha...Kristen is the daughter of my friend Kim, and just a beautifully darling girl inside and out, as is the lovely Samantha beside her, who is Roch and Chyrise's daughter. Oh, so cute! We had a wonderful time...it is amazing how all these kids work their way into our hearts so quickly. (I admit it, I had tears in my eyes several times watching them perform, seeing them all doing such a great job, and witnessing the growth of the people that they are going to become someday.)
Hope you all have a great Sunday! It's my favorite day of the week for just hanging out with my family and doing fun things together. St. Patrick's Day tomorrow, so if you are Irish (and with a grandmother whose maiden name was O'Brien, I definitely am such), don't forget the wearing of the green, the making of the Irish Soda Bread, Colcannon, Corned Beef, and Cabbage (and yes, I know the Irish don't really eat Corned Beef and Cabbage, but it is an American-Irish tradition, and therefore good enough for us)! (Sorry, still Lent with no desserts, so no Hard Sauce and Spice Cake....maybe a little honey on the Soda Bread, though.)
