It's a Hoe Down!

A couple of weeks ago Cai Lynn had a spelling rodeo fundraiser at her school. They decided to celebrate it with a hoe down. 

My mom picked up my niece Sarah and they had a lot of fun.

The line dancing begins...














They even had a little photo booth






 So much fun!

Madrigals!

Every other year the High School does "Madrigals" which is a renaissance dinner theater performed by the choirs. (The opposite year they put on a drama production... last year it was "Grease".) 

They practiced a TON by they put on a great performance! It was a lot of fun!

 In order to get int the theater, you have to cross over a bridge greeted by guards and this guy...



The Royal table


The candles on the table




It's dark in there and apparently the light hurt Jared's eyes.


Now the Royalty arrives...










While we are eating (and between singing acts) the maidens great us and talk to everyone at each table. The Wenches serve us our different courses.


What would you do with a drunken sailor?




More dancing




 We bought the mediocre tickets... which did not entitle us to silverware. That was saved for the royal tables.



The kids got to get up and do a little practice dance. (There were very few children there.... mostly adults.)



The king is challenged...



More dancing....





What a fun night!

Big News In Our House!

Michael is a driver!

He passed his permit test a week and a half ago and is now learning a little more each day.

My mom took him after school and sent me pictures at work step by step. Thank so much mom!!!!


Taking his information, Birth Cert, SS card  and getting him ready for his test.



The eye test



 

Grading his test (please ignore the creepy looking lady)


Picture time!

Whoo Hoo!!!! A week later... the card came! 

  

 He's been driving as much as he can and is learning step by step. Backing into the garage is apparently "the scariest thing ever" but he's successfully done it twice. He also went through his first drive-thru the other day! He's made the trip to and from church and school several times and is getting better at his turns. 

He has reached yet another milestone!
