Happy Days!!!

Me with my "husband and daughter" Ashley and John waiting for rehearsal for final dress.

A short post full of pics for this early, early morning. Here are some pictures from our practices. Tonight is the opening after three very hard months of rehearsal. We are tired and sick, but we are still rocking it out - most of the time.

I really do not recommend a three month rehearsal schedule, but I can see why it is necessary with a production sponsored by a military organization. We have lost people left and right. Deployment in San Antonio. Deployment to Afghanistan. The military way is so unstable.

Our Happy Days T-shirts.

Our director said it best tonight - we were strangers a few months ago. Because we aren't a military unit, it takes more for us to pull together as a team. And I can honestly say I have made some new friends during this production. I always pull this out, but to those who know me, I do not make friends easily. I tend to offend people a lot and they don't like putting up with me. Every once in a while, I do make the kind of friends who will stay friends.

I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to be a part of this production. Even when I may cry or scream, or cuss a blue streak for whatever reason, I have had a great time. It is so rare I get the opportunity to shine. And among so many talented people, makes it an even more pleasurable experience.

Happy Days is here. Opening tonight on Lackland AFB in San Antonio, TX. See us tonight, tomorrow night, or next weekend on the 23rd and 24th. Let me know if you want to come see it. It is so worth it.

Practice makes perfect!!!
I really hate this scene on so many levels.
