Busy Weekend

On Saturday we went to the Hilliard City Community Center for the Bunny Carnival. Corbin was so excited to see the Easter Bunny, its all he talked about last week! Every morning he would wake up and ask if we were going to see the Easter Bunny that day. I think this was the first year the community center did this event and it showed. The Easter Bunny was in the worst place possible - the entrance to the gym, so you had to walk through the line just to get in and out of the gym. The booths they had set up were okay, but they was no natural flow to things so everyone just crowded around any open space. The event has a lot of potential, they just need to make the layout more crowd friendly. I would post pics with the Bunny, but Randall was taking the pictures and of course they are all blurry since he doesn't know how to use the camera.

Sunday we went to Waynesfield to see my cousin Matt play Albert Peterson and his girlfriend Erica (aka Myrtle) play Rose Alvarez in "Bye Bye Birdie". Of course I'm not biased in anyway, but Matt and Erica were the best actors in the whole show. They can sing and act and they did a fantastic job! My other cousins Betsy and Emily did a fantastic job on the costumes, stage sets, and the pit orchestra. Unfortunately a no talent was cast as Kim McAfee, and oh boy the girl could not carry a tune in a bucket! Not to mention all her costumes (picked out by her) were not in keeping with the times and stood out (in a bad way) from the rest of the cast who were dressed appropriately. But like I said the highlight of the show was the hard work my family put into it and it showed!
