Testing, testing…. 1, 2, 3

While Nigel, Marie, Tab, and Hanny had standardized testing (and hanging out with friends),

With the help of a sweet assessor, we are now equipped to help Johanna grow her reading skills at lightning speed!  We love Miss Virginia and are looking forward to her visits this summer.

Easter 2019

The morning started with a basket hunt, as always.
Despite the fact that John and I believed that all the good spots had been overused over the years, it still took the kids a long, long time to find their baskets.  WTG Mom and Dad.  The big kids didn’t want early morning photos shared of themselves.

Church had the kids join the choir for two songs.  Or maybe the choir joined the kids?

We had a family photo in the church lot.  I wish I’d had my good camera and not just the phone.  I’d blow this up in a heartbeat.

After a scrappy lunch of leftovers we did an outside egg hunt.  It was chilly, but after a cold winter it was tolerable for a little while.

Stewart and Marie have a thing going.  For the last two years they’ve tried to recreate a pose from 2017.

Camp Nan

While Mama, Marie, and Tab were at Flower City Work Camp, and Dad and the boys were going about their work/school routines, Johanna and Katriel spent lots of time at “Camp Nan” where Nan and Nene spoiled hosted them.

They even decorated eggs….

CBS PJT Showcase

As the videographer for CBS this year, I record the material for the group, often neglecting my own camera.

Today the JT part of PJT (Primary-Junior-Teen) class share a skit.  Tab and Marie had some small parts.  Then Johanna’s class of P’s shared a few songs.  She wasn’t supposed to be highlighted in the center, but the way the kids took to the stage she ended up dead center without anyone in front of her.  This would cause some Butler kids to die of embarrassment.  Thankfully, Johanna is made of different ilk, and she owned her hand motions and lyrics.  ♥
