The Three little Brower's and how they performed

During the fall each of the kids took a Musical Theater class at St.George Musical Theater. After all the hard work of rehearsals and learning a routine for 16 weeks they were given the chance to shine during the Preshows before the Christmas Performance of AMAHL. Mckenna went first and performed to the song of YOUNG and HEALTHY. It was very cute, because the boys talked about this cute little dish and the girls talked about how how the boys were so fabulous.


Kyler went after Mckenna, He and his class performed to Oklahoma's FARMER AND THE COWBOY. Kyler loved this dance, he is such a natural at being a Cowboy.

Devin was the final performance with his class. They did two numbers but I didn't get pictures of the first number. The second number was excellent! He and Caylor sing about what a geek Hugo (Brian)is in a great rendition of GOING STEADY. Devin and Caylor were the only ones that showed up for the boys chorus, even though there were 3 other boys in the class. I guess they got stage fright or thought they were too cool. One of the other boys was starring in AMAHL, so he had a reason to be missing.



The performances were great. If you would like to see them, I have them on video.

The teachers thought that the kids were very talented and wanted to move Mckenna up into the next age group for the next semester, but Kyler wouldn't hear of it since he is in the next age group. but unfortunatly for Devin and Mckenna they will not be taking this class again because of Violin, Wrestling and Baseball for Devin and Dance for Mckenna (competitions start in March and her solo is taking up alot of her time.) Kyler loves this class and since he only has Piano and Baseball, he will be able to continue to take the class. He is very excited about getting started again in January. Here's looking for more performance from Kyler Jay Brower

What A Wonderous Tradition

Each Year since we have moved back to Utah Matt, the kids and I spend one day during the first part of December looking for the perfect Christmas tree to take home from the Pine Valley Forest, this year we took a little longer to get to the forest but we did finally make it!


Mckenna and Matt cutting down our smallest Christmas tree yet.


This tree was definitely not our biggest tree, but it was probaby the prettiest tree we've had. The only way to get a perfect tree is to pay big bucks at a tree lot. We paid $5 and it was a fantastic tree for that price!

After we drag the tree to the truck we have hot cocoa on our camp chief and walk on the frozen cow pond. We love this tradition!

P.S.
Roxey the wonder dog!
The funniest thing that our dog did while we were looking for our tree was to eat the snow and roll over and over in it! I think that this dog must have been a SNOW MAN DOG in a previous life. We love how crazy this dog is!

Dance Tracks on Queen Victoria's Stage

Before our final production of Oliver we had another Brower that performed on the the Queen Victoria's Stage. Mckenna and her dance studio DANCE TRACKS performed a few dances from each dance team. Mckenna is on 2 Competitive Teams. Here is Mckenna with ON BEAT doing their Lyrical routine.

Here is Mckenna and her competitive dance team JUMPSTART. Most of the girls have been together for 2 years. They are so cute! Mckenna loves dancing and being with her team mates, expecially Kyleigh!

OLIVER

Devin and I participated in the Dicken's Festival Production of OLIVER. During the production of Oliver, I had the great fun of watching Devin perform as an orphan and a pickpocket.He is such a great actor! I was on stage for less than 5 minutes but it was fun to do something with Devin that was just the two of us. Devin also talked one of his friends into trying out too and Mark had a lot of fun in his first play!


Mark (Devin's friend) played an Orphan staff member


During this scene Devin was a very black-eyed (Make-up) pickpocket. (sorry, it is so dark.) He really hated the rehearsals, but loved the performances and getting to meet an actor named Guy Smith, who became one of his Idols. Guy is 16 and a great actor. The boys loved him!


Devin with Fagan (Guy)this was a great scene. They are going to be doing a production of OLIVER next fall at St. George Musical Theater and Devin wants to try out for that one too. Guy, I guess is going to try out for Fagan again and that really encouraged Devin to try out since they had so much fun together!
