The Ceiling Can't Hold Us

 Our friends, the Muehlenbruchs, teach at Emerald Ridge with Chris. Last year Ben and Jenni got the wonderful idea to make a staff video to play at the first pep rally of the school year for the high schoolers. This year they chose to make a parody of Macklemore's The Ceiling Can't Hold Us. In his video for that song, Macklemore shows a flag that represents him and its journey through the Northwest. In ER's video, they kept the same idea and followed the Jag Nation flag until it rests on the top of the high school. The Muehlenbruchs organized a filming day with a large group of the staff and Leila and I got to come along. We started that morning at Owen Beach, then to the zoo, then a ferry ride to Vashon and back, a drive around the Pt Defiance 5 mile loop and then, finally froyo at Yeti Yogurt. Whew, what a day! The picture above is the school's principal skipping rocks with all the Jag kiddos.

All the kids had a scene in the video too!

Planning the next scene...

The kids had a great time waving to the cars as they drove onto the ferry.
