A busy week...

My parents came in town on Thursday.  I don't think they were expecting a full couple of days of grandchildren activities....

 Thursday night....

Savannah's Ta Vaci spring performance. 



A few months ago, Savannah's Ta Vaci --performing arts teacher-- asked Jesse if he would sing/dance the duet "Together Again" from the musical Annie with Savannah for the spring performance.   They both were looking forward to singing and dancing together on stage.   Then Jesse put two and two together and realized he would be out of the country the night of the performance.   Our Sweet Hunter stepped up and performed with Savannah last night at the Ta Vaci spring performance.   They both did a great job!  





 Thursday night 
(only a hour after the Ta Vaci performance)

Hunter's Baseball game 


Friday morning....

Hunter received the Paw Pride Award at school for showing
"Truth and Tolerance"  

The principal read the following aloud (written from his teacher)... 

"I have never met a student who can tell the truth no matter how tought a situation can get.  He finds ways to stay positive and honest whether it is himself or a close friend in a sticky situation.  Hunter has a contagous smile and a heart of gold, which truly make shme one of a kind.  I am very pround of you Hunter!  Keep up all the hard work"







Later Friday morning....

A trip to the Orthopedics for Madison

At this appointment they took out her spacers and sealed her cast with a new wrap.  They asked her if she wanted a new color (other than purple).  She looked down at her shirt and said, "Green like my shirt!"  (a true girl, coordinating her cast with her outfit!)


And of course, I have to add something about Eliza.....

She missed her Daddy!  I have never seen her so clingy--she would get upset even if I left the same room.  I think she thought I was going to disappear like her dad did. 

This is a picture of her talking to Jesse on the phone... who is all the way in Saudi Arabia!
She is so pleased to hear his voice!
