Hey everyone! So sorry that it has been a while since we have posted! We have discovered that we only get 60GB of Internet usage a month, how do we know this you may ask? Well, with Wil being at work all day and with it sometimes being to cold to walk around outside I will have Netflix marathons or watch my shows from home during the day. Apparently that takes up a lot of usage, so on the 15th we got a notice on our Internet browser that we had used 100% of our Internet usage...opps. So my lesson has been learned and the Netflix marathons are over. Luckily this forced me to really find some good stuff to do during the day. I have discovered a wonderful 3 story bookstore just a few blocks from us. It has everything, Starbucks, nik nacs, and most important of all an ENTIRE display devoted to the 100 year anniversary of the Titanic!! I have never seen so many Titanic books in my life. So much of my time has been spent there drinking coffee, reading a good book, and using their free wifi :-).
Wil is doing great! They have started rehearsals on the Toy Story Musical which Wil is very excited about. Today they are running through one of his songs and a run through of one of his other shows. He is loving it and has been uplifted by having several members of the cast and the directing team say that he is perfect at portraying Woody. They have said his voice is wonderful and the way that he captures Woody's movements is great. He is also very excited to discover that after almost a month of strength training before every rehearsal and some of the scenes that he is doing that he has developed quite a bit of muscle :-) Of course I don't think this is a bad thing at all, it just makes my already handsome husband that much more of a hunk :-)
It has been very hard though being away from everyone that we know and love. Wil is busy during the day with rehearsals so he hasn't really gotten homesick yet, though he misses everyone. But I have been having several days of homesickness. I even broke down crying at a movie because for some reason it got me thinking about my best friend Laura and I just lost it. It's very hard being so far away from everyone, luckily Skype has helped, at least that way we can see our family and friends. But I can't wait to get back home and see everyone personally.
The cast has been great though! We have been getting to know them and Wil is so grateful to have a cast the gets along so well. And none of them have a problem with the tag-along wife :-) So I have gotten to know a few of them and it is wonderful to have friends up here. We will all go out a few times a week, there is $5 wing night, a pound of wings by the way. There is a $3 martini night and karaoke night that always proves to be a fun time.
We will post a video as soon as our Internet gets better but so long for now! We miss you all.
HI- I'm Peyton's mom and so glad you have this so I can get some idea of what's happening! Tell Peyton to get on the stick and get his going! And FT his Momma more!

Hi Kathy,
DeleteI'm Nichole's mom. I just wanted to say that I've heard wonderful things about your son, it sounds like he, Wil, and Nichole have hit it off real well.
I'm happy you're enjoying their little blog and videos. I know for me it makes me feel like I'm there sharing in all of the fun right along with them.
If you'd like to send me your email I'd be happy to let you know whenever a new post is made. Or I'm also on facebook and I always post a link when Wil or Nichole update.
Blessings,
Renee'
I just know you're in heaven with all of the Titanic books and information. By the time you're ready to leave everyone at the bookstore should know you on a first name basis :)
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that rehearsals are going well for Wil and that he is doing good.
We love you both and look forward to some more videos when you get a chance.
Love, Mom
