Corey auditioned for a leading role in the musical, "Traditions of Christmas." It is one of the biggest Christmas plays in San Diego. They perform the play at the East County Performing Arts Center, which is a huge venue! Anyway, she tried out a few weeks ago and had waited about two weeks to find out that she had been selected as one of the 6 female leads in the musical. There are 6 guys and 6 girls that make up the ensenmble and Corey is one of those girls. The girls and guys are paired up and do a ton of singing and dancing!! The ensemble has 12 costume changes!!! There are about 150 people in the musical all together, so it is a big production. What an honor for Corey!!! She is the youngest one in the ensenmble. There is a boy that is 19 and all of the other performers are 22 and older..... and Corey just turned 18 last Friday. I can't tell you how excited she was when she found out. I am so happy for her. She deserves it. She is a truly talented singer and performer. We can't wait to see her in December!! If anyone would like to go, give me a call and I can get you 2 for 1 tickets. They are regularly $35.00 a ticket.
Oh...and more fun...Aubrey and Julia went to the "Traditions of Christmas" auditions as well. They were only able to audition at the singing audtion and missed the dancing audtion. When Corey pulled up the cast list on the computer, Aubrey and Julia were cast as "Toys" in the musical!! How fun is that?! They both did well at the singing auditon. I couldn't believe how brave Julia was when she got up to sing in front of everyone! I thought they weren't going to make it becasue they missed the dancing audition. So, the 3 girls are in it, which is really a fun experience for them!!!

A funny story about Julia...
I had to share this cute story about Julia with you. She says the funniest things sometimes and this was so sweet and sincere I wanted to tell you. A few nights ago Julia and I were saying her prayer. In her prayer she was saying "Bless my family to be happy and help us to have a good day at school tomorrow," and then she said this......."and bless you (you being Heavenly Father) and Jesus Christ to have a good time in Heaven!" It was so sincere. I need to start writing these things down more often because as time goes by I forget the cute things she says!

It's a BOY !!!
i had an ultrasound last week and we are having a boy. MORE BASEBALL!!! we are sooo excited. my mom was here helping with the move so she got to go to the ultrasound with me. the ultrasound tech gave us a copy of the video and it is fun to watch! right after the ultrasound i sent a text message to corey, patrick, and emily and told them. my mom, pat , julia and i all went to the elementary school to tell daniel and aubrey. we went into the office and had them call daniel and aubrey out of class for just a minute to tell them. daniel came into the office first and i said, "guess what, it's a boy!!!" and we seriously thought daniel was going to pass out!! the office staff was asking him if he was ok...he had to sit down. it was so cute!!! daniel and aubrey were both really happy!!!
julia was really cute the other night. i was laying by her tucking her in for bed and she said, "i am glad the baby is a boy, mommy!" and i asked her why and she said, "because if it was a girl, all aubrey would want to do is play with the baby and not me!" i guess she is beginning to feel the crown slipping already!!!
we are all done with the move to our new house. we had a lot of help and it made such a difference! we had 6 missionaries, our bishop, and 2 good friends, danny quidang and patrick pettijohn to help us. we started at about 9:00 am and they were done by 3:00 pm. so it didn't take too long. i don't know what we would do without danny quidang. he is the hardest worker i know and he has been helping us for 3 months to get ready to move and then to get moved in...THANK YOU danny!!!
what would i have done without my mom during the 10 days she was here to help me. she helped me sooooooooo much. i couldn't have done the move without her. she is amazing and such a hard wotker!! mom, thank you so much for helping me. you made things so much easier for me and we got so much done. thank you thank you and i love you!!!
