"Master of the HoUsE"....DHS presents Les Miserables~

Each year our High School puts on the most amazing school plays. Every year I say to myself, it can't get better than that (for real...I'm not being prejudice)....and every year they out do themselves. My kids have always loved being a part of the Drama program and LOVE performing. Dayna and Todd both loved doing drama "back in the day" when they were still in school, Erik wasn't a fan of performing in front of crowds so he didn't participate in Drama...but then along came Kim who enjoyed acting and she started our family of drama kids back up...then there was Cameron, who loves it as well...we'll see where Halle goes, she still has a few years before she has to make up her mind. This years play was "Les Miserables". I was a little worried that the kids wouldn't be able to pull it off because it was a difficult play with alot of singing WHILE acting. I had never seen the play myself, but had heard from many people, what an AWESOME play Les Miserables is. Never seeing it before, I went into the first nights performance with not much expectation,

and came out VERY AMAZED!!! The play not only has a wonderful message but the kids (all the kids) did a fantastic job. I was really excited that my children were a part of such an outstanding program and that I "GOT" to go back every single night to watch them perform. I will have to say that the Tuesday night performance was my favorite. All the kids were at their best that night, letting it all out and performing at top notch. They really touched my heart. Kim and Cameron both did an outstanding job. I love watching my kids do things that they enjoy doing. Their personalities come out and they just shine (yes, I am bragging a little, but they really make me happy and smile when they do so well!) Our Drama Club has amazing advisers that take so much time out of their own lives and use their own resources to make these productions come together in the end. There were many people behind the scenes and so many volunteers that were giving of themselves to make this play possible. I am grateful for the wonderful people in my community that are just that, "WONDERFUL"...in many, many ways, that love their jobs, as well as the kids and our community. The play is always a fun way to start the holiday's out..."school play, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years"...it just wouldn't be the same without it!

WAY TO GO KIM AND CAM!!!

Yo MammA is So ProuD oF YOU BOTH!!!!
