Will stars in a Mormon Message!! Some of you may not know, but before Will and I met, he was living in LA working as an actor! He has always loved that kind of stuff, but realized it would be hard to be in that profession and have a family. So, he moved to Utah married me, finished his undergrad and then went on to law school. But he has kept his profile active with some talent agencies, mainly the ones that cast for LDS things. He has been in a video here and there over the years. Anyway, when it works out with his schedule, he auditions for parts.
A few weeks ago, he found out that the directors that are doing all these awesome Mormon Messages wanted him to audition for one they were about to work on next. He wasn't really sure if he had the time, but they were pretty persistent, and wanted to see him in person. They chose him for the part in "I Hope You Know We Had a Hard Time" that is from Elder Cook's talk. He was supposed to act like he lost his job.......um, gee, he can do that without even acting!!! It was a very neat experience and I am so glad he did this!!
Oh, the man in the video really is handicapped; he has MS. Will said he was a very kind man. Did you notice the snapshots of me and the kids on Will's desk!? Does that make us famous, too? The kids keep asking Will as we are watching it, "Daddy, are you having a hard time?". Cute.
We both love this talk and think it is so neat that he was able to be a part of it. I have often wondered if Heavenly Father knows when I am having a hard time. I testify that He does.
p.s.
I will post about our vacation soon. I know you are all dying to hear all about it! Hee hee hee.

That video was awesome, I watched the one he posted on Facebook. I had no idea he was an actor. I know you mentioned to me that he likes that, but I didn't know he actually was! Pretty cool....it was neat to watch that video. I am so excited for when he makes it really big....I can tell people I watched his dog once!!
WOW! Very moving. Good job Will. We think of you guys and miss you. Need to get together!
