seder meal

we have a seder meal at our church every year on the wednesday night before easter.  it takes us 3 whole days to set up for it, and it is a ton of work.  but, our kiddos love it!

those smiles are worth the effort.  plus, it seems like we all learn something new every year!  but, i'm glad we only celebrate once a year!  we need that long to recover from the setup!  :)

round 2

last year, william asked one of his teachers, Mr. Bennett, to sing with him at chapel.  several people told him that they should make it a yearly thing.  so, this year they went for round two.  and they knocked it out of the park!!  they played/sang In Christ Alone, and they did a fantastic job!

sweet 16

the little people played in oxford a few weekends ago in the sweet 16.  it's the best tournament of the year, but this year it was freeeeeeezing.  and windy!!  i don't know what is up with the wind this year, but it can just go ahead and quit any day now!

reed and william both finished in second place in their singles divisions, and william and his partner, charlie, won the doubles.

when i asked what the best part of this tournament was, i received a quick answer of "they have the best player lunches ever!"  so, i guess that means that we will be back!

mamoo and taylor

we made a quick stop in the delta during spring break to see all the people.  and in case you are wondering, just because you are 90 doesn't mean that you can't get on the ground and teach wes how to set stuff on fire with a magnifying glass.  maybe we shouldn't leave these children alone together!

everybody was all smiles before we left!
