Mary's Unusual Clothing Item

I imagine that I have more unusual items than most, though Auntie's socks could probably give my socks a run for their money...this is a shot of one of my socks with an ostrich head on it. I thought it would be fun to take it upside down as though the ostrich were hiding it's head in the ground... I also received sloth socks for Christmas which I think are pretty fun.

My wildest item

I don't have anything all that wild.  But I love this hat. :)

Late Again

Sorry to be late posting again but I have been trying to get my pictures to transfer.  Alas, I still have nothing so this will be short.
For those of you not in Kansas, we have been having some beautiful spring days.  It is good to get out of the house without having to put on layers of coats to stay warm!
We made a trip to the local zoo which was a lot of fun, several trips to the pasture plus our regular day to day routine.  We both continue with our volunteering and so far have avoided the flu.
Hopefully next time I will have pictures but for now.  Love to all.

Keepin' It Real

Not a lot to report from the Rutherford house this time around. It seems as though we are always working and trying to develop our connections to advance toward the next thing. We get together with friends for drinks and dinner and enjoy a wee bit of time here and there together.

For each of us this has paid off. After going out on tour and getting an IATSE union card, Kurtis has stepped up to a Local 1, Union shop here in the city - Hudson Scenic. He is one of the low men on the totem pole here and the work is coming week by week, but he is enjoying it. Currently building for The Heidi Chronicles and Something's Rotten. If you'd like to see some of the types of things that they work on, take a look here http://www.hudsonscenic.com/.

As for me, Mary, I'm getting ready to start a brand new Broadway show at the beginning of March. It's called Dr. Zhivago - there is a movie made back in the 60s and a novel written much longer ago that this is based on. I'll be working as a dresser, which means that I will get to help set up the show and the track that I am running which is a first for me. Something that I have been itching to do and am terrified to move on to at the same time. I will keep my day work with Jersey Boys as they are my Broadway family from day 1 and will have to give up the work at Aladdin for now. It's an exciting adventure that awaits! 

Other than that, the cats are doing well, the apartment is treating us well and life is good. We are planning a visit back to Hutchinson in February and look forward to seeing most of you!!!
