When I was a kid, one of my favorite things to do was organize a family production number. I would take the Janeen Brady stuff, or whatever, assign parts to my brothers and sisters, and we would put on show for our parents. Our stage was usually the hearth (sometimes pronounced hearther, and also used by Garrett for cracking open his head during an exciting night of spinning), we also would perform on the trampoline or swings.
Well, this morning my kids were listening to an oldie, but a goodie, My Turn on Earth. The song "What does it take to make a family" started to play. It all came back to me. How about at Garrett's wedding luncheon we do a production number!? The words are "What does it take to make a family? People who love and laugh, people who sing a song". Come on, does this not sound like us? Tori could be our choreographer (be sure to include lost of jazz squares). So are you game?
Ok, if not a production number maybe we could make a video with pictures of Hayley and Garrett and put it to that song. I hope you are all laughing with me!

i'm laughing... mainly because i've heard about the exciting night of spinning... but i'm game for whatever you want to do!
Oh man... I think during one of those I got so excited that I tried to do a flip off the hearther and landed on my back. I must have had a flashback to an earlier production on the trampoline... That'd be funny to put that together!
I am soooo laughing! I would love to do a production number, you know I'm such a ham. But really, who isn't in our family! Your post just brought back so many memories. Star Ship, the Standing Tall books, even the record of Wonder Dog! I remember doing one on the swings, was it to "we're the kids of america"? I just remember the choreographed swinging and singing. I thought Jared wanted to sing the "I'm Peanut Butter and You Are Jelly" song at the wedding? We could have quite the show! :)
