Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

A few weeks ago Noah’s school invited the Fathers in for a little appreciation just before Father’s Day.

I was presented gifts.

An ornament..

..and a card with a drawing of Kate skiing, me photographing, me snowboarding, and me skateboarding! Amazing.

Later that afternoon his after-school program, Kid’s Orbit, put on a performance.

It was a musical about “good guys” (played by the kindergarteners)..

..and the older “bad guys” that the “good guys” converted.

Noah’s solo performance.

The video.. (forgive the camera movement, I was multitasking).

Amazing.

The two Spanish Kindergarten classes in Noah’s school put on a play last week about a woman (played by a 5 year old) who has some troublesome farm animals (played by 5 year olds). Noah opened up the performance by welcoming everyone and giving them a quick rundown of the story, in English.

Noah’s classmate gave the Spanish version.

Paxton as Old MacDonald.

These ill behaved animals liked to play in the mud.

The pigs rolled in the mud…

Noah rolled out of the scene.

Wishy washing.

Ms. Chavez (the teacher of the schools other Spanish class) as stage coach.

The cast takes a bow.

Ms. Rabsatt (Noah’s teacher) thanking kids and the parents that helped build the set and costumes.

The kids waiting for parents to come up to the stage for photographs…

and hugs.

There may be video of this performance, I’ll keep you posted.
