Thoroughly Modern Muzzy VanHossmere!

Thoroughly Modern Millie

Here's just a little clip from "Thoroughly Modern Millie" produced by IFYAC, November, 2013. Loved, loved, loved playing Muzzy VanHossmere!

I didn't get involved with IFYAC theatre this year, Fall Musical or Summer Theatre Camp.
I'm mostly staying at home trying to help Kirk regain his health.

Activity Days "Take A Hike" Activity

Activity Day Girls' June Activity

Thursday we took our adorable 8 to 11 year old Activity Day Girls on a nature trail hike to Cress Creek. It's near Heise Hot Springs. We were blessed with a beautiful, sunny day! The hike was about a mile and a half long. The trail makes a loop; up the mountain side we trekked, ate our sack lunches, then down the mountain to our cars. Blissful day!  Would recommend this activity to anyone. It's an easy hike, the first half mile being wheel chair (and baby stroller!) accessible. Colorful signs are all along the trail with interesting information about history and nature. Most of all the girls loved the wildflowers, playing in the creek and little streams. and seeing a "chick-monk!" Great trial run for our July Activity Day, Krupp Scout Hollow "Camelot" Day Camp!
