Les Miserables

I saw Les Mis at Tuacahn Amphitheater in St. George. I was really skeptical at first thinking it wouldn't be that good, but now I can't think about seeing Les Mis any other way. It was so cool because since it was outside there were horses, fireworks and real canons. Also there wasn't a single person in the cast that didn't sing or act up to par. It was a great show and a lot of fun. As usual, being the crier that I am (which I inherited from my dad, not my mom), I cried throughout the second half. (It's not my fault that A Little Fall of Rain is the most touching song ever!)

Old @ Heart

Today I went out to eat with my grandma's club "The Wrinkle Chicks". There are 12 senior women who all hang out together. After dinner we went to see the documentary Young @ Heart which proves to be a new favorite film of mine.

Yahoo movies describes the film as "Young@Heart is a New England senior citizens chorus that has delighted audiences worldwide with their covers of songs by everyone from The Clash to Coldplay. Based in Northampton, Massachusetts, the group is made up of two dozen spirited seniors who specialize in reinterpreting rock, punk and R & B classics from a unique perspective. Their lineup includes former schoolteachers, executives, doctors and food service workers, and the chorus is guided by their longtime director Bob Cilman. With less than two months to go until a one night only concert in their hometown, the performers struggle with the new lyrics and unfamiliar melodies of seven new songs. During their thrice weekly rehearsals, they gradually take possession of music ranging from R&B classics like Allen Toussaint's "Yes We Can Can" to Coldplay's emotionally powerful ballad "Fix You" upending assumptions about old age, love, sex and death.

I loved the movie and would recommend it to all.

Heaven...

Is going to be one big all you can eat In-N-Out burger, which just so happens to have a franchise in St. George Utah.
