Dinner with Family

Saturday night after the recital, we went to my Aunt Kathy's house in Sullivan, WI. They have just added on a whole house the the small house they have now, and it is gorgeous. The whole thing has the log cabin look, and the new house is just huge! Anyway, we had our first family get-together in her house since the addition.  It was nice to see family again. :)

Bekah's Birthday

On Tuesday night, I went with a bunch of girls from camp to dinner for Bekah's birthday. We went to the Organ Piper. It is a blast there. There is a guy there who plays this huge organ the whole time, and you can put in requests for what you would like him to play. He can play pretty much anything, he is so good on the organ. Anyway, we all had a blast. We had pizza for dinner (which is what the Organ Piper serves). And then we sat around and listened to the music for a while. It was so much fun. Here are some pictures. :) 

Me, Mrs. Glass, Rachel and Ashley

Bekah was all embarrassed when the organist 

played 'Happy Birthday' for her, and we all sang to her. :)

Leah, Hannah and Aunt Carol

sometimes the organist would put the organ on a setting 

that would play these ducks, and they sounded so funny! :)

HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY BEKAH!!! :) 

WACS Competition

Last Friday, (the 19th) we had our WACS competition. (WACS stands for Wisconsin Association of Christian Schools) It was a really long day, but it was nice to see everybody do different things, and to be able to compete this year. :) Most of the pics are blurry because I couldn't use the flash, and I didn't have a tripod. I don't think they want you messing up the contestants with the flash from your camera. So I don't have very many good pictures, but here are a few of the best. :)

I thank God for his hand on the competition throughout the day. 

It was a blessing. :)
