Scott and Sue Family

Tuacahn 2007

This year we went down to Tuacahn to see “My Fair Lady”.  We did the pre-show dinner because that’s become our tradition and watched the pre-show on the plaza.  They had constructed some pretty awesome sets for this production.  They made a large iron bridge that spanned the stage and was used for several things.  It was the columns for the Covent Garden scenes below, it was the vantage point to see the Ascot race, it held up the Higgins house set, and was just really cool.  They had horses do the race on the road in back of the stage and that was fun.  Great show.

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beauty and the Beast

by

Our family is participating Alpine Community Theater's summer production of Beauty and Beast. Sue is serving as the music director, which includes directing the orchestra for each show.  Scott is the principal accompanist and will be playing keyboard in the orchestra.  Brian is appearing in the show part of the Gaston dancers, an enchanted object (Flatware) in the castle, and in the battle scene at the end.  He ends up dancing for about 3-4 hours each night in practice.  Mark is playing cello in the orchestra.  Our show runs from July 27 until August 6.  If you live in the area, we would love for you to come and see it.  Tickets can be obtained at Alpine Community Theater Tickets.

State PTA Family Life Commissioner

by

Sue was recently appointed to fill the remaining time the Family Life Commissioner for Utah PTA.  She has been working in various positions at the local, council, region, and state level of PTA since we moved to Utah (after many years in PTA positions in Florida).  Her passion is the legislative process and enjoys very much discussing legislation with our state legislators during the annual legislative session. 

Mark’s Graduation

by

As unbelievable as it seems, Mark graduates today from high school (not unbelievable because I thought he wouldn't, but because it seems like the time has gone so fast!).  Mark graduated 6th in his class, received an Academy diploma, and was honored at Lone Peak's recognition night as the Outstanding Orchestra Student. 

We are very proud of Mark and all he has accomplished.  He received a full tuition scholarship to Brigham Young University, where he will be attending school in the fall.  Mark plans on attending school for a year, before leaving to go on his mission.

Mark and BYU

by

Mark received his acceptance letter from BYU the day after his 18th birthday.  He has another semester of high school left, and he needs to keep his grades up for possible scholarship opportunities, but he can breathe a little easier knowing that his first big grown-up hurdle is over.  He's going to the university of his choice!
