South Pacific

Since I am graduating and finals are not a huge stress for me this semester, I was excited to be able to accompany Cory and her family on a trip to Great Falls.  Cory's sister, Sarah, lives with her husband, Darron, in Great Falls.  He is in the Air Force, stationed there, and Sarah is the choir director at the University of Great Falls.  We all headed up to see the University's production of South Pacific, which was Sarah's directorial debut.  


Two words: Home Run.  Let's get real for a second, people.  Great Falls is not the biggest place on the map, and it isn't crazy to think that there wouldn't be a ton of talented people to cast in the play.  Well, the joke is on you because there are a ton of talented people in Great Falls.  I mean, there were some great voices in that cast.  The play was entertaining, and seeing as it was the final performance of the weekend, Sarah was honored at the end by the entire cast and crew.  


Even though it was so short, I really enjoyed the trip.  We had never visited Sarah and Darron up to that point, so it was fun to see their natural habitat.  Buzz, Grandma Pladsen, Jake, and Anna all made the trip with us, so it was like a mini family reunion.  I think it is important to have those kinds of memories in a family.  The next morning we ate a delicious Easter breakfast together and headed back to Utah.
