Valentines Day

For Valentines day this year Jim and I went to Love Letters a play done by the Guild of the Utah Shakespeare Festival. It was such a fun little play, there was not a ton of physical acting though. The two people in the play were a husband and wife (in real life, but not in the play) and they both sat a desk on opposite sides of the stage and read the letters that they 'wrote' to one another. here is a basic synopsis from the program...
"Throughout this tribute to lasting friendship, Andy and Melissa revisit their journey from childhood playmates, to teenage sweethearts, to secret lovers. Despite their deep feelings for one another, fate is against them. Love Letters is a story about the endurance of a true romantic connection in spit of life's trials and tribulations, even if it is only expressed through letters.

I really enjoyed it Jim was great to sit through it with me. (even though I think he truly did enjoy it too)


opps, I always cut off the top of his head when I am taking pictures. :)
