Today was part 2 of the District 204 Fine Arts Festival. Kirstyn sang and played in the band, and Zachary had an art project that was displayed… Zach’s project was a cute little teapot that he made out of clay stuff. It was really cute and he was so excited to show it to us. […]
Well, I’m back from a GREAT week at Microsoft TechEd 2011. I had a great time and learned a ton! I know, what a way to talk about a conference of geekdom! 🙂 I stayed in the Ritz Carlton in Atlanta and it was a wonderful hotel. The staff was great and I slept pretty
Tonight, Sarah had her final band concert of the year at Metea, and she performed wonderfully as well. Unfortunately, I missed this one as well due to the TechEd conference in Atalanta. I was bummed about that one as well. Angela got a couple of pictures, but they were really blurry due to the boys
Tonight Brittany had her final Metea Orchestra concert of the year and it was awesome! Unfortunately, I wasn’t there to hear it as I am at TechEd right now, but I sure wanted to be there, and was bummed when I found out I would be missing it. They did a GREAT job! Angela didn’t
Today I left for the Microsoft TechEd 2011 conference and am now in Atlanta! I’m pretty excited to attend the keynotes and sessions, and to talk to the vendors about products that might be able to help us out. We’ll see how it goes! The place here for the conference is HUGE! I think I’m
Today was round 1 of the District 204 Fine Arts Festival at Metea for Sarah and Brittany. Next Saturday will be Kirstyn and Zach. Angela volunteered to work at concessions for most of the day with a break to watch the girls play… Brittany played first with the Metea Orchestras and the middle school orchestras
Tonight Kirstyn had her final Still Middle School chorus concert and she did a GREAT job! They had all 3 grades participating, along with the honors chorus. The picture above is of Kirstyn’s 6th Grade chorus. They sang 3 songs: I Love a Piano, I’m Goin’ Home on a Cloud, and Songs from Gahu. Kirstyn
Yesterday, Angela and a bunch of her running friends drove down to Indianapolis, and today, she ran in the Indy Mini Half Marathon along with about 37,000 other runners! This is her 4th race there and she did a GREAT job! Her time this year was 2:12! That is her best time so far (she
Today Sarah took her AP Calculus Test! She felt VERY good about it and hopes to get a strong 4 if not a 5. We’ll keep our fingers crossed! She should get some good college credit out of this one!
Today marks the BIG 20 year mark for Angela and me! Wow! How time has flown. It seems like yesterday that we got married, and now it’s been 20 years, 5 kids later, and a few gray hairs. OK, more than a few gray hairs… 🙂 We are planning a 20th anniversary get-away when we
Today Sarah took her AP Psychology Test! Let’s hope all the studying paid-off! 🙂 She didn’t think it was too hard, but has no idea on how she may have done. We’re all keeping our fingers crossed!
Tonight, we had our 7th (I think) annual Teacher Appreciation night! Brittany and Zach had school teachers there, and Brittany and Sarah had one of their Seminary teachers there. It was a crazy time and we wish that more teachers could have come, but we had a great time! We had dinner for them, and
