When Hobbies Collide

L-R: Ryan (obviously), Mike Frost (co-screenwriter), Katina (lead actress)

Here is a look at Ryan's week in Austin. Due to what I found to be misleading information on the part of my violin institute website, Ryan's and my trips overlapped. This made for our trickiest planning ever in our two years as parents, but our thanks goes out to any and every family member we took babysitting advantage of.
As I mentioned before, Ryan and his brother James are shooting a short film out in Austin, TX. The story is about a mime, and though they have hired an actress for the female lead, the main character, Vermont the mime, is being played by none other than Ryan. Don't worry, no kissing scenes! :0) Though it was a little unnerving to hear Ryan talk about going to the makeup store before his flight...I got a 15 second update from Ryan every other day but happened upon James and Lonna's blog and got a much better update. I knew I could count on you, Lonna! So here is what they are up to if you are interested...I know I am fascinated.
