First day of school for the boys...
Oak, year 10 |
Noah, year 13, received his tiger jacket on Wednesday...
and Friday/Saturday, went on the first adventure team training of the new school year.
I love this picture!
Noah is the tall guy..."what a boss!" |
Meanwhile, Danny, year 11, hosted a big party, got braces, and he also got a lot of piano practicing done. He's working on the Ravel Toccata and Waldstein Sonata.
Seminary started this week. 6:30AM at the church. Yours truly as the teacher. 6 registered students this year. It feels like the beginning of a long trek - I'm excited for the great views along the way.
Books of the Week
Read-aloud for the girls - their favorite so far. They cheered at the ending. |
Thanks, Nana and Gramps! |
Before reading this book, I had never once considered the intersection of Mormons and Mao Tse-tung- era China.
Holly, I read about Mikes Grandpa on Facebook. Mike gave a very touching tribute to his OPA. I am happy that Mike can be at the funeral.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a beginning of another great year for all of you. Enjoy seminary - I am sure you are the best teacher ever. Love you, Mom
Ah yes, the Jade Dragon Box. I remember enjoying that book very much.
