All About the Arts

Daddy has been hard at work at another TCT production. This time, he played the role of Curley in Catfish Moon. We always enjoy hosting friends and family for these play weekends. Crab came over for opening night and stayed a few days with us, to the kids delight! Aunt Mary, Uncle Dub, and CheChe drove over from Birmingham for the matinee' performance and were joined by Bob Bob and Mama Charlie. Judd credits his love for acting to cousin Cheryl (CheChe). Growing up in Pensacola, Judd would visit Aunt Mary, Uncle Dub, Cheryl, and Chris during the summers. After listening to Cheryl's copy of Godspell over and over, he knew then that he wanted to be on stage! Judd was able to live out this dream by starring as Jesus in TCT's production of Godspell in 2001. It is extra special for Judd that his family continues to support his love for the theater!

This is as close as Cole and Mary Conlee got to Catfish Moon!

 
So glad to see Uncle Dub, Aunt Mary, and CheChe

As if the week weren't busy enough, Mary Conlee had her "Fancy Tree" masterpiece on display at the Tupelo Art Gallery. She was excited to be featured at the Shared Treasures art show like her brother has been in the past. With Daddy busy getting ready for opening night, we were glad Aunt Jen (Crab) was able to go with us to the art show reception. Way to go, MC! Break a leg, Daddy!

So proud of her work! The girl loves anything "fancy!" I don't know where she gets that!
