High School Musical 3

Yes, Nina and I along with thousands of others moms and daughters ventured to the theater this weekend to see High School Musical 3. Now I have seen the first two movies and honestly, they aren't' that bad. The music is fun and the young actors really do a good job playing their parts. The third movie is no exception. Although it has been mentioned that the craze that this movie brings is like the movie Grease when we were kids. The two movies are NOTHING alike!! HSM is about simple issues that of course are easily resolved in song. Grease on the other hand had drugs, teen pregnancy, car dragging, smoking and, lets see, oh yes, sexual conduct. In HSM 3, the two main characters, Troy and Gabriella, finally kiss. Not quite the same. And it took 3 movies to get there. Anyhoo, Nina and her good friends Jenna and her mom Janet; Nina and her mom Diann and I all went to the show. Another funny thing about the show, it reminded us moms of some other movies. The three that we saw within the HSM movie was Footloose, Thriller (okay, not a movie but we could still see it) and Grease (in the way they did the credits).

After the movie, we all went to Barleys for dinner. Cindy who was watching Julia for me, met us there. We had a very nice time.

Mark on the other hand, was off to Craig, MO for the opening weekend of duck hunting. Sounds like it was a good one since they got over 30 birds in two days. Mark was most proud of Kutter and the good job he did retrieving the ducks.
