Our stake hosted an interfaith council Thanksgiving Choir concert. Craig Jessop conducted the combined # with around 300 people. This was our short rehearsal before the show. It was a fantastic expereince. I have been in the church choir for forever but I sure miss our excellent highschool choir.

College Girls

A few of my college girl friends got together to chat the weekend away. We played togehter freshamn ear and lived together at BYU off campus housing our sophomore year. Those were some FUN times! I married Roger after sophomore year whicj ended built in sleep overs and shared clothes. We met in Southern California and I introduced them to threading. We went shopping, ate Stan's tacos, chilled in the hot tub, had our nails done and went to Balboa island. We were not completely kidless but had a blast none the less.

Kindergarten Party

Party #3 Kindergarten Halloween Party! We had 3 group rotations: musical chairs, halloween bingo and and a treasure hunt. We then had a custume parade with the whole school and decorated cookies. I came up with the treasure hunt rotation and wanted to put it here so that someone next year who is searching for something like this will find something like this here. I searched and searched and finally created this.
Don't know if you've noticed but I don't put pictures on here with kids in class. Some privacy thing and having to get permission from parents. It's no fun at all because so many fun things happen at school!

Here's how it went. The kids are working in senses right now so I used senses for the clues. The first clue was smell the pumpkins and I hid the next clue in the pumpkin. Next was taste the lollypops and I hid lollypops next to the next clue. Then was hear the music and I hid a cd player with fun, not scary, halloween music. They had to dance to get the next clue which was feel the smoke. I had a fog machine that they had to move through. Last was see the x (treasure) in the orange bucket with brains (spagehti). In the bucket they had to dig through spagetti to get to non food halloween toys like bubbles, pencils, scary eyes and such. Here is the link for the black cats http://familyfun.go.com/Resources/game_cat.pdf.



Scary fun! (in a Kindergarten kind of way!

Student of the Month

Rory received student of the month for her class last month. We have been very impressed with her excellent behavior at school. Wish it would move over to home but hey, no one can be perfect everywhere. Unfortunately like last year for Josh I was nearby but had completely forgotten about the award ceremony. At least I am consistent. Here is the award back. The front has to much info about our family.
You are amazing Rory!!!
Consider yourself school pictured!

Magic Show

Party #2 that I put on in October as Family Night Chair was the Brock Edwards Magic Extravaganza! We sold around 600 tickets and were planning to have it outside when rain came into the forecast. We instead had it inside split between 2 shows, cancelled the pre ordered pizza dinners and only had concessions outside. This is really him!
Despite the changes the night went great and I think everyone had a lot of fun. I don't think that most people who came had expected such a professional show but this guy was really good.
