COSTUMES

Check out our costumes:



The best is Erik's Blue Wise Man costume. He was the Red Wise Man last year & that was a very elaborate costume all decked out with peacock feathers even. Well, this year he's the Blue Wise Man & he has the only costume with pants! So, here ya go - check out our very own genie!

















It's so much fun every year to see what your costume will be. It's always a surprise!

I have to tell what Jadyn said the other night at practice. We were standing at our spot on side stage waiting for our cue to run onto the stage for Triumphal Entry (the scene where Christ comes with the donkey) when we heard our cue. Once we hear it everyone's suppose to run on stage with excitement, yelling "Hosana" & looking for Jesus. Well I hear Jadyn just start yelling, "Jesus is coming! Jesus is coming!" I thought it was so stinking cute! I asked her again what she said because it just startled me that she totally grasped what we were suppose to be excited about & I can't say I took the time to really explain what was happening. I thought she just figured Jesus just got to ride a donkey. She then told me, "Jesus is coming to town!" Gotta love that kid!

So, here's Kylie story. Last night was press night. Well, they had camera men on stage filming everything with boom cameras. They asked all of those in the Jesus & the CHildren scene to stay late to run the scene again to film it in a different angle. So, we had to do Kylie's dead girl part again. So, we head up the stage & Erik hands Kylie over to Jesus & the camera's are right on her face & she's suppose to be dead right? What does she do? Opens her eyes for a split second! Little stinker! Hopefully they can do some fancy editing with the different angles they shot.

i have to say, Erik has improved his make-up application skills over the year, has he been practicing in his spare time? don't lie. "don't worry, i won't tell nobody" {famous chancho quote}
the girls are so adorable! i love the stories, too. i especially love that you called her a little stinker cause you used to make fun of me for saying that word.
see ya guys tomorrow night! {hopefully} :)

Sweet costumes! Very cool experience for your family. Did Erik do his own make-up? It is looking quite fantastic. Does he head out after the show to a Fall Out Boy Concert? I'm assume some of their fans would have similar make-up application.

Big E can be in Christina Aguillera next video..."he's a Genie in a bottle, you gotta run from him the right way". Im only teasing, Erik don't get mad, your mascara might run. Again, just a joke. Take it easy!
