Geneva Choir

This week we celebrated Shrove Tuesday at our church, complete with a pancake dinner and concert afterward. The highlight of the evening for me was to see my children in the choir. This is the first year Geneva has a choir and both boys are in it. For this special occasion, the elementary school joined the choir. Even though I've been hearing the song for three solid weeks, I enjoyed the performance so much. I didn't have a good visual spot for recording, but you can hear the choir and if you look carefully, Caleb is on the left, Naomi is just right of the director, then Esther, Abby is next to Esther's hand (sort of hidden) , and James is on the top row, far right. The last verse is sung in the Zulu language. Hope you enjoy this...

Fun at the park

The kids love to go to the park. A great thing about living in Louisiana is that with the exception of a few cold, wet days, you can go to the park year round. Over Christmas break we were able to go twice. Once was on New Year's Day. Dan was off and after a morning of bowling with the kids, we were able to enjoy a picnic in the park. Its been a long time since all 10 of us were able to go together. A fun, memorable day.
