Today was Eva’s final performance for her Hullabaloo theater group. Our friend Nicole runs the program out of her house for 8 weeks and at the end of it the kids have a performance at An Unlikely Story. Eva has been in the program a couple of times now and it is really nice. The kids learn about some history, some acting, singing and performing. They sang some covers, original songs and then did some theater and performance games. I was very impressed with how Eva was on stage. She is showing more poise and confidence with each new performance. She also added in some ballet moves as that is something that she loves and has been doing since she started dance. She also incorporated Hip Hop dancing into the performance. We could hear her because she is projecting better, too.

After the performance Allison had to go to the Eighth Grade Dinner and I took the kids to KC’s Classic Burger Bar where it was Kid’s Night which meant that there were free milkshakes with the purchase of every kid’s meal. I got an Oreo one and the kids split a Chocolate Cookie Dough one. It wasn’t quite a huge hit with the kids but they did like them.

Thursdays with Built From Bricks

Every Thursday I head over to my friend Brian’s house. For a while we were filming a show called SteamDads. It was a science based show that we enjoyed at first but really ran out of steam once we stopped coming up with experiments and ideas. It was fun to shoot but took a long time and didn’t really find much of an audience.

Brian asked me if I wanted to help him out and film an episode of his show, Built from Bricks. I agreed and it has been fun ever since. We’ve done all sorts of shows. The most popular show has been the City Updates. Brian has such a cool LEGO City being built in his garage. Each week he has something new happening and it is awesome. Tonight we shot a whole behind the scenes video that included a studio tour. The photo from today was what I shot for our Thumbnail for the episode. You can watch it below. If you haven’t already, please subscribe. We are closing in on 100 subscribers and when that happens we are going to do a big giveaway.

Brian even agreed to help me out with an episode of Big Damn Kid. I’m looking forward to going to Philly Brickfest Live with him in April. I think people are going to love the MOCS he made for his LEGO City.
