Recital/What Heroine Are You?


May 30th, 2008

Hello! Well, I’ll start out telling you about the recital. Here goes:

We got there at about 7:00 p.m., so we went over our music pieces with Miss Jessica. The recital went really well and I remembered my flats! Praise the Lord!

I also checked out theL.M. Montgomory Quiz and guess what? I was Anne! And I also took the: What percent of Anne are you? and I was 100% Anne! You should really check it out!

Also Noah might be/is getting teeth! He is so grown up, smiling and cooing! I love him! :)

Have a good day!

P.S. You should also check out the Jane Austin Quiz! I think I was Elizabeth Bennet; Mom and I took it several months ago! Lol! :) Update: I took it again and was Marianne Dashwood this time!

Play Dough Fun/Recital


May 22nd, 2008

Well, I have not posted since…well, I don’t know when! SO today I am going to give a REAL update!

Yesterday, I was going through some stuff I have not gone through for 2 years! LOL! And I found some playdough. I asked Mom if I could let A play with it. Mom said, “Fine.” Well, you know, the pied piper N took her down to help her and the boys followed. It turned out that they started fighting over the lack of dough because it was such a tiny container! So Mom suggested to N, B and me to make more. We did, using kool-aid we had in the cupboard (for color); it worked even though it was OLD! We made pinkish red, pink, lavender, light green and yellow. Enjoy the following pictures!!!!!!!! (once I get them up, that is).

Also we have a piano recital coming up tomorrow! I will be playing Estrelitta by M.Ponce, B will be playing St. Anthony’s Chorale by Hydan, N will be playing Sunday school songs, I think, and Yankee Doodle, J is playing Little Bird and Swinging! Miss Jessica Erber is the BEST piano teacher! Her advice and teaching are SO helpful! Without her , I don’t think I would be where I am at now in piano! I am really looking forward to playing for the recital!

Have a great day!
