PRE-SCHOOL PROGRAM

I just emptied my camera of all the pictures I have taken since January!  I am very behind!  And a lot happened in that time frame.  We went to the 60th anniversary party for Mike's Aunt Patsy and Uncle Ellis Worley.  Great time visiting with family that day.

Just had to go ahead and put those in here!  Now on to the main topic, Ava's Preschool Program.

Ava attends PreSchool two days a week.  And she has learned so much!  I love listening to her sing a new song!  I can never learn too many songs!

We went to her end of the year program.  It was all about animals.  The green background you see is sort of a jungle look.  She was ever so cute!  And very active!  One of the few who actually did all the hand motions to the songs.  Jay said at their practice for the program, the kids were not singing very loud.  The teachers asked them to sing louder.  Ava was very obedient!  Now, in a full auditorium, I could not distinguish her individual voice.  I guess my Grammy skills were not functioning well that night.

Ava is on the top row in the middle with the yellow visor on.  There were a ton of kids on the stage, so you are only seeing a few.
If you enlarge, you might actually see her face!
Ava really getting in to her hand motions.  More so than most of the kids.  She is second from the left in this one.
At this point she is off the stage, heading for the aisle to go back to her classroom.  Although shelooks like she is waving at me, she is actually shouting, "Hi Poppy", to Sarah's dad.  I am not sure she ever saw me!  She is third from the left, waving.
Just included this one because I think she is cute.  She may have actually seen me in this one.
One last shot of her after Sarah retrieved her from her classroom, snack in hand.  A good time had by all.  Afterwards we all went to Red Robin for burgers.  She got to stay up late that night!
And what a little sweetie Eli was the whole time!  How could he complain?  He got passed around to be held and admired.  I still cannot hold him due to my shoulder surgery.  I don't think he misses me holding him, though.  Aunt Jenni and Pop make sure to hold him a lot!  He is so cute!




"5But I trust your mercy.
My heart finds joy in your salvation.

6I will sing to the Lord 
because he has been good to me."
Psalm 13:5-6

"Now Somewhere in the Black Mining Hills of Dakota....

...lived a young man named Rocky Raccoon."  I always thought that song said "South" Dakota.  Are there Black Hills in both Dakotas?  I'm sure I don't know and am not really going to take the time to find out, no matter how easy it is with Google, Bing, etc. After Cabin Time, This set of Worleys, young and old, headed for those Black Hills.  We were going to see Mount Rushmore.  In South Dakota.  And to see anything else that struck our fancy.  So we struck out in our trusty Jeep and Mini-van, loaded with kids and snacks.  On July 30.  We saw lots of motorcycles as we went.  Lots. Of. Motorcycles!  Come to find out, it was the start of the annual Sturgis Rally.  In Sturgis, SD.  If you do not know what that is, feel free to Google it! Our must stop place was Wall Drug Store.  In Wall, South Dakota.  We stopped, we ate, we shopped around.  It is a lovely place to spend a lot of time walking around. ...

THE WEDDING!

The Wedding -- the only one we will ever host! Why didn't we have more girls? This was fun! Above, of course, Dad dancing with Bride Jenni. They had fun, didn't they? But of course, this was the reception, we are supposed to have fun! The week before the wedding was a whirlwind of last minute activities. We had guests from Chile at our house -- Kani - Rod's friend from childhood, and Cristian -- Rod's brother. We also had Lindsey -- Jenni's bridesmaid and friend of Rod from Chile. We worked on wedding stuff and ate way too much! Decorating the church was actually easy -- we had lots of help. We decorated on Wednesday evening. On Thursday, we finished up by adding trees to the auditorium. And, dumb old me, I have absolutely no pictures of it! I can only hope our photographer took some! Table Decorations at Rehearsal dinner -- Cute! Friday night -- rehearsal dinner. Wow! The Rehearsal went great. Decorations -- provided by my sister and our friend Sue T...

On Being Alone

Sadie, in her "The Water Bowl is Empty" pose. I have spent the whole day alone! Well, Sadie and Belle are here, too. My goal was to sleep late, catch up on laundry, and read through March 4th in the Chronological Bible. I am happy to report, I have met all those goals! I felt a little bit like Mary or Martha today, depending on my activity. I would work some, read the Bible some, eat and drink something along the way. There was some praying occasionally, too. I have been in the book of Numbers today. One of my favorite hymns comes from this chapter six of this book (I am still trying to learn the alto part!): 22 Then the L ord said to Moses, 23 "Instruct Aaron and his sons to bless the people of Israel with this special blessing: 24 'May the L ord bless you and protect you. 25 May the L ord smile on you and be gracious to you. 26 May the L ord show you his favor and give you his peace.' Of course, one of our greatest blessings is Ava. She is getti...
