Piano Lessons Begin


August 2015
Micah began his 6th year of piano lessons today with Mrs. Amy Cline.
Here's a little jog down memory lane with a "now" and "then".

Orthodontist - phase 2 continues

While sitting in the waiting area of Dr. McCallister's office Angie (the receptionist) walks over to us with a huge 'cake display' of school items.  She said "Micah won this!"  His mouth dropped open and he seemed in disbelief.  It was one of the items put on the receptionists' counter for patients to participate in trivia for the month.  Last month it was "how many school supplies are on this display?"  Micah's guess was the closest.
So, after selecting his 'black & white' bands (for piano starting), he carried his display of school supplies out to the car to go home.  When he got home he began taking items off, organizing them, and counting them.  (My little beaver!)

Show & Tell

Dave, our neighbor, got his "Show & Tell" in early this year.  Last night he had a visitor and wanted to share with us this morning.  Meet "Mr. Toad".

1st Day of School

It's Monday, August 24th and our first day of school.  Micah begins 6th grade and Lilly 2nd grade.  Hard to believe!  We are very excited about the things that God has planned for us to learn this year.
 
We did our "first day of school" height and weight:
Micah:  85.8 lbs. and 5' 2"
Lilly:  42.0 lbs. and 3' 10.5"
 
Several "big eyes" stuffed animals joined us, as well as Sammy (our cat).
