Hesston Variety Show


The Variety Show was such a blast! We had such a great time and laughed so hard. I wish you all could have been there. Here's a sampling:

Drew and Jessica Betts sang a duet, "Lucky." Listen to that smoothe tenor.


The opening number "Come on Everybody." Drew is on the right. His partner is wearing a lilac poodle skirt. The lighting starts out kind of wierd but it gets better.


The boys sing " Roots of Rock N Roll." Drew starts out on the back row, right.

Drew, Garrett Byler and Joel Thiessen in a skit called, "Normal Guy." I think Drew was glad to be in his part and now Joel's! The second to last line is kind of hard to hear but it is, "Think I should call and warn the nursing home?"


The whole group performing "Brotherly Love." Drew is on the right and at the beginning one of the other guys jumps into his arms.


The group makes up "ditties" to introduce themselves. Pretty funny!

We've attended this show for so many years (20+) and it is always fabulous. It's a bit surreal to have your own child up there! What a great opportunity and so fun to watch your child blossom before your eyes! Thank you Mr. Miller!


I noticed that Blogger seems to crop the video so if you want the full screen version, go to YouTube and type in Hesston Variety Show 2009 and you'll find these and more.

It's all so wonderful, I'm so glad you took the time to post these. When I listened to the first song it made me kind of sad -- not because the song was sad! It was very good. But because I kept thinking about a video I saw of Drew when he was three, wanting to eat his piece of apple pie, but he waited until after he sang a song for the camera. He had a spoonful of pie up by his mouth the entire time. Do you remember that at all?

I had so much fun watching this variety show and am so sorry my whole family did not attend. So, thank you for giving us a glimpse for home viewing! I still say Drew was the best singer!!!

We were so privileged to be able to hear all of this in person. It truly was amazing. I keep playing Drew's duet over and over - thanks, Cheri, for making it possible for me to do that!

That was so fun to see again. Can't wait until next year's when Drew is a Senior.
