Brayden's Political Parody

Brayden decided to compose a political parody, so I recorded him singing it. Please do not watch it if you are left-leaning - I did not filter any of his words :-)

Brodie the jumping bean

The heal click jump

The blindfold jump

This what goes on during the school day when there is a short break and no teacher is around. 😮

Our Family Presentation at Classical Conversations

It was our turn for the family presentation.  Last year, we did a parody on "A Few of My Favorite Things."  In keeping with the Sound of Music theme, we opted for a parody on "So Long, Farewell."  Brodie is devastated that this is our last one ;-)

Brennan "working hard"

Brennan is very diligent in starting his jobs and making sure each one is done.  Bless the little guy, he just goes at his own pace sometimes!

Dominican Republic Mission Trip With Boys May 2017

Last month, we took our 4 boys to Santo Domingo and stayed with "Papa Bill and Nana Peg" for a family mission trip.  What a wonderful experience!  Following are a few photos and videos of the trip...

Arriving in Santo Domingo

Meeting new friends at The English Church

Papa Bill explaining a work project

Cleaning the apartment and church

Sunday early morning service at the English Church West.

Next, we drove for the English Church East service.

And finally, the English Church service by Bill and Peg's apartment.

Jon and Brayden were able to sing a duet together

for the first time at all three services.  What a special time!

In the Colonial Zone

Bill and Carolina do a half-hour radio program.

Here, Bill is interviewing us in between cracking jokes :-)

Carolina interviewing the boys.  What a great experience

to see first hand how they reach the people of Santo Domingo through radio!

Brennan had fun saying a few words.

Sorting donated books we unloaded from a truck

to be used for the kids at the English Church West.

The little boys worked hard during the day

and crashed hard at night!

Brayden prayed that the our flight home would

get canceled so we could stay longer :-)
