Brooke the movie star!

http://www.ktka.com/videos/2009/jan/30/23612/

If you go to the website above you will see a video of the new tv show "Broken Road" that Brooke and Kenzie were extras in. Just click on the play arrow and watch for the girls, they're in the clip quite a bit!!

The episode in the video is episode 6, the last one filmed. The first episode premiered yesterday (Brooke & Kenzie aren't in the first ones). We still haven't heard if the show has been picked up by a big hollywood exec., if it is then they will be shooting more episodes that the girls will have a chance to be in!

Another Day in the trenches...of acting that is

We spent most of the day today in Topeka again letting Brooke and Kenzie glow in the spotlight of being actresses. Ok so they were just extras but their face...or arm or foot or something just may be shown on TV so that makes them super star actresses right??!!! They really got a taste of the sitting and waiting and nothing being on time part of acting today but they still loved it!

Brooke ready for her scene.

Brooke and Kenzie being "real" actors...sitting and waiting


Although it was great to see the girls loving life so much doing the extra work, I am kinda glad it was only for two days! The long drive there and back both days and then sitting around waiting has made me one tired mama...I think Robin would agree!

Now back to regularly scheduled programming...and NO Brooke and Kenzie you will not be getting the star treatment!!!! I think there's some trash to be taken out and dishes to be done...oh is your rooms clean??????!!!

All about Brooke

The past four days have been all about Brooke.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday were all spent giving her room a makeover (her Christmas gift)...we painted, tiled, decorated...you should have seen the sweat and tears :-) She wouldn't let us quit until every detail was just right! There's one more piece for the room that we are waiting for (in the mail) before the big reveal. Brooke said I could share a couple of pictures so here they are...

Brooke's entire room in our bedroom (wow! who would have thought a 12 year old would have SO much junk...I mean stuff!)


Then today we went to a shoot for a television show that is being filmed in Topeka, Broken Road. Brooke and Mackenzie were cast as extras in the show so we took them up there today and we'll go back tomorrow. They did some hallway scenes today, I'm not sure what they'll do tomorrow. They were a little nervous at first but after their first scene they both were hooked! They loved getting to experience the whole exciting life of actresses. These will be the last two days of shooting (for extras) for the first (6) episodes so they'll have to see if the show is contracted for more episodes before they know if they'll get to do more acting. You can see a little about the show at www.brokenroadtv.com Here's a picture of Brooke all decked out for her day...



Lexy has been learning about supporting family members (and being happy for them) and taking turns (in games and time) the past few days and she's doing great with her learning...I was so proud of her today! We did stop working on Brooke's room Sat. evening and had a Family Fun Game Night. We played Don't Break the Ice, Memory, Operation and Pictureka (which is a GREAT game!!). Here's a cute pic of Lexy just 'cause...

Brooke's Animals

Before we started off for Spring Break vacation Brooke took these pics with her animals...not sure if she was going to miss them or if she thought they wouldn't be here when we got back??!!
