Much to our surprise Harrison tried out for a speaking role in his school's play. To our even bigger surprise he got the lead role! He was none other than Freddy Farmer, in charge of tending to all the vegetables in his large garden.
He had quite a few lines to memorize, but with a month or so of practice he had them all put to memory.
We didn't know what to expect, I mean, Harrison isn't our most outgoing child. When it comes to drama Gavin is typically the one who 'steals the show'. Clearly, we have overlooked Harrison's Thespian skills. Because once he donned his cowboy hat he was no longer Harrison-lover-of-video-games-and-indoors, he became Freddy-tend-this-garden-rocker-style-Farmer. The best part of the play was watching him do his best 'air guitar' during the veggie rock song. We didn't know that was coming so to watch his uninhibited enthusiasm as he rocked out to a song was quite entertaining! This is Harrison showing us after the play how, exactly, he air guitars. Funny, the broken arm seemed to add to the overall effect!
Quite the handsome farmer if I do say so myself. He was in mid-sentence
drawing out a nice Southern 'howdy.'
