University of Utah Youth Theatre

Lex has always been our performer and has had a desire to act for quite awhile now. When I found this three week summer program at the University, Lex was all for it. He took classes such as improv, stage combat, and acting technique.  Each company then puts on a 20 minute performance for friends and family at Kingsbury Hall. We were very excited to see how he did. Oh my! When he walked out on that stage in his costume, it was all I could do not to cry. I was already so proud of him. His company performed "Snow White and the Untold Story". He played "Grumpy". He knew all of his lines and we could hear him so clearly. So proud! Did I say that already?

Pre-performance and not nervous one bit!

 Doing so great with his lines. It really was so much fun watching him.

 And, proud parents!

Father's Day weekend we headed up to Wyoming and got to spend some time fishing. Lex learned to cast his pole all by himself. He was so proud! Next lesson: worming a hook! Yuck! I'm still learning that one.

Lagoon- FINALLY!

Oh my has it been the coldest spring this year EVER! Well, I don't know if it's the coldest, but it sure hasn't been warm enough to go to Lagoon until just recently. So excited we can finally use our passes! Here's to long, hot summer weekends spent at Lagoon-A-Beach!
