The Bumble Bee Stung Annie

bee

This year I dressed up aelleannies a bumble bee for our Trunk-or-Treat Halloween celebration at church. My favorite niece and nephew were in attendance. Elle was Annie (in a mini skirt)  and Kent was an elephant. Krissy (a maid) and Dylan (Daddy Warbucks) were also dressed as characters from Annie. Remember that elephant in Annie, well that was Kent. When Elle went to Disneyland this elephant summer, she was stung by a bumble bee. Unfortunately, she still remembers and brings it up all of the time! Not many children were there, which meant more candy for me!

“What where you doing last night, out at the woodpile?”

Seven_brides_seven_brothers The Kent girls saw one of the funniest musicals a few weeks ago! Although this quote was not uttered, many funny lines and moments were shared at the Bakersfield production of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. There were a few new songs, and a few songs were neglected. Millie had a beautiful voice! Adam started out a little shaky, but eventually I became an enthusiastic fan. The lead character proudly informed the audience he was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ Latter-day Saints in the playbill so it was particularly funny when he made a reference to Mormons while performing “Sobbin’ Women.” Frank was absolutely hilarious! He seemed confident with himself, and that allowed the audience to laugh with him. Some of his best lines were “Meow, meow, meow!!”
