This past Sunday we celebrated Children and Youth Sunday at church. Here are some of the kids who led the congregation in singing Hallelu! Hallelu! Hallelu! Hallelujah! as the children’s sermon. Mason is on the end in the gray, and June with her arms crossed.

The Kids This Afternoon/Evening
When I picked Clara up after school she already had most of her homework done, so after she finished up her reading we spent the afternoon making candy bar puppies. They were a hit, for sure.
In fact, she sent a couple of them with me to take to Mason to celebrate his performance this evening with all the second graders at his school in their Title One program – songs about Charlotte’s Web, and then they each got the book and a set of questions to be answered after they and their parents read each chapter. And everyone who answers all the questions gets to have a Movie Day at school and watch the Charlotte’s Web movie. He was excited – and goofy as usual. His web is pretty fitting.

Regional Tournament
Today was the Region 4 Class 5A girls’ golf tournament, and Clover was definitely the underdog. Here is Mal putting -she definitely struggled with that today, but by the back nine she was really coming around.
On three – EAGLES. Clover advanced to the Upper State Tournament next week. This from a team who hasn’t won a match all year, I don’t think, and who played three middle schoolers today, and from a school that didn’t even field a girls’ team last year. We are SO proud and excited!

Fun Yesterday
Pictures are very blurry, but yesterday was another good day. Mason was here sick again, so of course him being sick wasn’t a good part. But when the meds kicked in he felt fine – good enough to help me make pies for the church bake sale this weekend at our Fall Extravaganza.
Then last night was another in our series of the performing arts series at the auditorium in town. This time it was Shadows of the 60’s, a Motown tribute performance. They really were talented – the lead guy had once been in the Drifters for several years – and I’m not sure when I’ve just enjoyed a performance more. Wow.
