Cool School of the Week

Each week, our local Fox station chooses a high school for the "Cool School of the Week." This week it was Mountain View and the kids were ecstatic! All through the morning, "Big Budha" would spotlight different organizations within the school. Maggie had to be at the school by 5:45 a.m. so he could sing with the nuns from the upcoming musical "The Sound of Music." I spent Tuesday and Wednesday sewing costumes so they would be ready for the big day. You can see Maggie by clicking on the link below. She's right behind Budha in the introduction (the girl with glasses--it's funny how different all of them look without hair!) and then as the camera pans through the song. They were supposed to have choir robes, but the choir needed them, so they just wore their habits. Ian was in the group with the Bruin Crazies (the last spot of the day), but you can't see him. They were filmed introducing the sports guy saying "It's Rungie time!," but because Game 1 of the World Series ran long, they didn't use it. (Go Phillies!) We'll keep our eyes peeled, though, for it in the future.

Who is This Guy?

It's high school football season! I always look on this with fondness, reflecting on my own high school days as the football trainer, spending every Friday night on the field and the bus with the team, sometimes celebrating a win, or soaking in the deathly quiet of the bus ride home from a loss.

Now that Ian is part of the student council, he's one of the Bruin Crazies. Just a few months ago, he would never do anything to make himself stand out in a crowd. Now I can hardly reign him in.


Maggie getting into the spirit as well.
