The good baby who was awake for the entire preformance and didn't make a peep!

Calvin in his dancing part, he does actually dance but of course I couldn't get it on film.

Some of the cast: The king was excellent!


What a sailor! Great acting and singing, Calv!

At Calvin's school the whole 6th grade preformed the musical "The King and I," right before Thanksgiving break. I could not believe the level they preformed at. It was amazing! The kids painted the backdrops and made some of the props. They all remebered their lines very well and I still can't beleive that an Elementry school could preform a musical and do such an outstanding job. The play was an hour and 20 minutes long and calvin had various parts in it. For a little background info: Calvin came home a few months ago and said they were doing a play and they had to submit or apply for the non speaking parts. He definately did not want a speaking part so he requested stage crew. A couple weeks later, they got their parts and to Calvin's dismay, he got a part as a sailor. He was finally coming to accept his part when his teacher announced the sailors would also be singing! You can imagine Calvin's excitement, singing in front of all his friends! He also was a non speaking, "action actor." Well I went to see the play during school the first time expecting to see Calvin, as a sailor, in the first scene and not much during the rest of the play. Well, to my surprise he was in about 3/4 of the play as an action actor, and because of his size, usually in the front. He also did a dance number. He was embarrassed at the first but he did very well. They preformed the play 4 times and had it recorded the last night. Fun times in 6th grade!
