Get in the Habit



We saw a play tonight, the first performance of a production called "Get in the Habit" that was playing at the Cumming Playhouse.  This was pretty much Madison's first introduction to the whole idea of what a nun is, and all the related nun jokes that followed.  It was a nice night, although a pretty late one.  The play started at 8:00 am, and went on until a little after 11:00pm, so as you can imagine, we were all pretty wiped out coming home.  Madison was so tired, she told us not to worry about reading before bedtime.  Let's just go to sleep!

Intermission was fun, as you can see here.  The play was at the Cumming Playhouse, which was an old school house.  We sort of made our fun in the various rooms:



You can see Pastor Lance and Josh were with us tonight.  I don't know the other two that are with us here, but I think they're a bit overdressed for the play.



Here's Josh's date.  Madison thought this was funny. On the other side of this room was a big chair, and a really big Santa there.  Usually Santa is in the chair, but I guess he's just being nice letting other folks have a seat.



Meanwhile in a classroom nearby, Josh is getting into a hearty debate with a few of the students that seem to be hanging around after class.


He had them speechless at one point.  The old school stuff in this place was fascinating to look through, old documents, desks, and tools used in teaching.  You really had a sense of history here.  They even had a bunch of models of the churches of Forsyth County, all lined up on shelves on one wall.  You can see a few of them behind this picture of Daddy and another girl we ran into.  I guess they're praying?


Anyway, it was a fun night.  We did a lot of work today, writing and setting things up for Sunday.  There was still a bit of cleaning up to do around the house, and Madison had some piano to practice.  She was working on origami a good portion of the day too, attempting to fold an origami x-wing fighter.  Lately, we've been watching a few videos online, how-to videos that show you how to make certain things - like flowery ninja stars, for example.  And so on.

Anyway, it was a pretty full day, with a big production at the end.  We're blessed to have Madison get out to see actors on stage, as well as movies.  With our season tickets for GTA coming up, that'll hopefully continue as the fall season begins.
