Confession

OK...I have a confession to make. It's a good thing no one really follows this blog because this could be rather embarrassing.

I am 30+ years old and I love the HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL movies!

Yes, I said it! I love the High School Musical movies - 1, 2 and 3. I finally came to this conclusion after my husband and girls left for church and I was still watching the movie "High School Musical 3". I even went back and watched a couple more songs again. As a person who has done choreography for students in musicals I love all the dancing in the third movie! I think the chemistry both on and off the screen between Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens makes the scenes even more special. Yes, I really love these movies!
I don't know what it is about these movies that is so fun, but they really are fun. I think right now the third installment is my favorite. There is just something about that senior year in high school and all the emotions going on that all the songs seem to be hitting a cord with my soul. Wow...that is a pretty profound and deep thought for a tween movie!
I guess I am getting sentimental due to the fact that I am heading "home" to have a mini reunion with friends from my high school years. I love these people tons! They made me who I am today.
While there are times I dreaded high school and all that went along with it, I do remember helping my girlfriends get ready for proms, dances, dates, etc. Those are the memories I treasure. The laughter about nothing. The anxiety about the evening. The fears of how the night will go. I want my girls to experience those times with their friends. I can't wait to watch from the "wings" while my girls make on their own "scenes of life."
Well now that it's out in the open all I can say is: "Anyone want to come over and have a High School Musical marathon?!"

Help my friends


I just want to post this for my friends, Travis and Beckie Kiker. They are the most special people who have a heart for everyone! They especially have a passion for adoption. They were blessed with their 17 month old daughter Nevaeh through adoption. However, God has dropped another blessing in their laps and they need help. God opened the door for them to adopt a baby boy who is due anytime now. It happened so quickly it can only be a God thing!

However, adoptions cost money. They had not planned to adopt this quickly and are in need of funds in order to receive this special blessing God has offered them.

If you would please take a look at this website and if you can help out in anyway, we would all be extremely grateful!
