Seussical




The girls just finished participating in an amazing production of "Seussical the Musical". Keola had the part of the Sour Kangaroo and Analei was a Jungle Citizen. Wow, the kids did such a great job!

We have watched the past five productions of the 7th Street Kids, as K'O has participated, and have enjoyed all of them. However, we were truly blown away by the amazing cast of this one. The leads were so strong this year, and the kids were so prepared! What a great production! I cannot say enough about the quality of this production! It far surpassed any previous productions and exceeded even the local college productions, which are usually quite impressive. Watch out, Broadway, these kids are well on their way!

Strawberry Ice Cream

Okay, so Maile "inspired" me to take this quiz and it says I'm Strawberry ice cream. Incidentaly, I don't like strawberry especially the kind with big chunks...slimey and just not good for me! Mai says that it fits...apparently I'm sarcastic?? Huh!
