So...

you know that little audition I mentioned in my last post that Camden went on? Well, even though they said they would call with a "Yes" or "No" answer we were kind of thinking that since it had been 11days with no word that was a sign that he had not gotten the part. We were ok with that, just the fact that the director wanted to see him was enough for us.

Well, I got a phone call this afternoon that Camden GOT THE PART!!! The movie is going to start filming here in Atlanta within the next couple of weeks. I am not sure how many days he will shoot but more than likely it will be one or two days. Once we know when it will air I will post all the information.

He is sooo excited and we are sooo happy for him, even Grace, although a little miffed it isn't her in a movie, is happy for him. They are both ready to go to church Sunday and to school on Monday and tell everybody about Camden being in a movie. Hopefully his teachers will be understanding and willing to give me his school work to take with us so he can do it on-set and not miss anything.

If he enjoys this and wants to continue then I guess our next step will be finding him and Grace too, an agent. There are sooo many here in the ATL area that I don't know where to start, it makes my head spin!!

Go ahead and request your autographs now and put them away for safe keeping in case you want to Ebay it someday!!

Get your autographs while they're free...

If you know my kids then you know that the DIVA dreams of HOLLYWOOD and California and getting that Big Break! If you know Camden, he is all about the video games and sports. So you may be surprised when I tell you that today Camden had an audition for a movie that is being made here in ATL for Cartoon Network.

I saw a posting for 8-11 yr old boys last week and took his pic and sent it in not really expecting to hear back from them, but you never know unless you try, right? A couple of days went by and then I got a phone call from one of the casting directors who had shown Camdens pic to the films director and they liked his "look" and wanted to see him. Camden was super excited, the DIVA was super miffed to say the least. This was the first, real audition we had been to, Diva has tried out for The Nutcracker with the Carolina Ballet several times and then there was the fateful audition that was really a John Robert Powers sales pitch but this was a full fledged audition and he did great!! We are just waiting to hear back if he gets the part, I pray he does get it, it would do so much at building his confidence and I think he would have a lot of fun.

I'll keep you posted when we hear something!

Taking a swim...

Tonight we celebrated the DIVA's baptism at church!! She did so good, not one bit of nervousness came through tonight while she was up in front of the church with Dr Cox. We were so happy that my mom was able to come in for the weekend and celebrate with us, the only thing better would have been if my dad was still on this Earth and was able to preside over her baptism just like he did with Camden several years ago. Although he was not here on Earth with us I know he was looking down with a big smile on his face tonight.

The bottom pic was taken before church when I told her to do a cannonball into the baptism..sadly she did not do it :( LOL!! We are sooo proud of her!!
