A Poppleton Kind of Day

June 16 (Yeah I know this is a little late!)- Before heading North for a while, Lucy and I had one last Poppleton Family day (as everyone gets older and moves different places this is a rare occasion!). There is nothing I love more than being with my whole family. We (Lucy and I) convinced everyone to meet us at the beach, indulge in some pizza, then head for the pool. We finished the night with an impressive rendition of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" in the Ward Talent Show (watch the video below). It's been a long time since we all performed together, so it really topped the day off. All in all, between the beach, the sun, the water and the musical performance it was a Poppleton kind of Day! (We were lucky too! It was cloudy all week, and the days following. It seemed as thought the sun came out just for us!)






For your viewing pleasure you can watch our performance below. It's a little embarrassing (except for my brother Brian, my musical hero), but why keep secrets? I mean the whole ward already saw it and we all need to laugh a little more in our day. Today you can laugh at my expense. Let's just say Dave is really glad he was already out of town and not roped into this one.

Talent Disclaimer: This performance should in no way taint your views of my family's true talent. We didn't want to all perform with our true talent, because making everyone jealous of our family talent isn't what talent shows are all about (Yikes!!!! Just Kidding!) Let me plead my case, We put it together in about 30 minutes, props and all, so you gotta take that into consideration. We didn't want to go all out since we knew there wasn't even a stage at our church building. Without a stage it wouldn't seem like quality theater anyway, so we decided to just have fun, as you will see was undeniably had! That's all that really matters anyway right? Decide for yourself and feel free to leave your honest comments. I am tough. I can take it!
