After we left Lake Placid we drove south to Manhattan. Everyone got to do something that they wanted to do. Cassie got to see Mary Poppins on Broadway (totally cool) Bryce got to take a tour of Julliard (amazing school) and Ciara got to go shopping at H&M and on Canal Street (we all got cute stuff). I got to go to Carlos Bakery (TLC Cake Boss show) and we went to Central Park, FAO Swartz and all over Manhattan. We took the Ferry across the East River one day, and rode the PATH train to ground zero the other day. We went to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. It was a fun couple of days.
We took a trip to Lake Placid to see Cassie in her first races for team trials. Cassie at the start with Steve. A view from the top. Cassie and her friend Annie O'Shea
Bryce competed with Lone Peak at the Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City. Lone Peak won the sweepstakes trophy, and our ensemble won too. Bryce was the lead in the ensemble and he won the Larry Lott award for the best actor in an ensemble. It awarded him a $1000.00 scholarship to Southern Utah University. He was given a lot of praise by the judges.
Bryce is in the productions class and auditioned last week for the different Shakespeare productions for the competition in Cedar City in October. He got the lead in Merchant of Venice for the one act play. The competition is October 7-9 and sometime after that there will be an evening of Shakespeare at Lone Peak.
I have decided to add pages so that I can display more pictures than on the main page. Just click on the page name and there will be several pictures. If you want to view Bryce's mission blog click on the picture below.
