This year both boys were in the school play of Willy Wonka Kids. The cast was about thirty kids and they all did such a great job, and had alot of fun. This was my third year of helping with costumes and set design for the wonderful productions put on at our school by our friends the Ricci's. The kids all have fun helping and watching it all come together.
Nathan played Grandpa George and was part of the everlasting gobstopper machine. Max played one of the candyman kids and was also a squirrel.
Nate loves the fact that he gets to keep these old man pajama's bought at DI.( I think they were tired of having their pictures taken backstage, since no one was allowed to take pictures of any kind during the production)
This is a picture from after the show with their friend Jacob Ricci as an oompa loompa.
Nathan was in Sleeping Beauty the year before, so he didn't get nervous, but this was the first year Max has done anything like this and he was nervous, but as soon as the first of the three shows was done he couldn't wait to do it again. What a wonderful experience for the boys to have, they really enjoyed it, and we are so proud of them.
What great pictures of the kids! I love the costumes, and, how do you get your kids to participate like this? I would love my boys to do a play.
