The empty nest….

Say "cheese", Leah.

Say "cheese", Leah.

After two performances (one more to go….without Leah) of VNL, we are spending Saturday afternoon learning how to “POST”.  Neal came to Friday evening performance and this morning tried to educate me in “posting” and “commenting”.  Now you may tire of my comments.  Oh, well.  

Neal, Daddy, and I took Leah to meet the Country Bible Church RV (& trailer) at Gas City in Benson at 5 a.m.  They arrived, got gas, loaded Leah, bought some refreshments and headed out to Mexicali.  Don’t forget to pray for Leah this week.  She’s working with the Coronitas VBS.  We came home and took a nap and then had lunch and Neal headed for home and a late afternoon wedding. 

The VNL performance included some nice band songs:  That’s Entertainment, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lexington March, Come on Feel the Noize and Puttin’ On the Ritz.  The choir sang Sh-Boom, Bookbag Boogie, Oh, Susanna, Wait for the Wagon, and That’s Entertainment.    They filled the program with the Cha Cha Slide and Numa Numa and had audience participants invited to dance on the stage.  Leah enjoyed dancing with several others to the Michael Jackson song “Thriller”.  She also enjoyed wearing a “poodle skirt” and doing choreography with Sh-Boom.  She had some SOLO  moments in some of the band piece.  There were also some skits between things (The Monty Python 3 headed giant) (The Reporter and the Politician) and Austin Dye and Ben Sanford actually sang the song about getting things on  ”E-Bay”.    There were some solo pieces also and a Kazoo Band.  The desserts were very fattening and the audience seemed appreciative.  Daddy got all his cues at the sound booth right!  Now we’ll do it one more time….without Leah.   We’ll have some video to show you at a later time. 

So…that’s VNL 2009….and now off for an “empty nest” week.  Do pray for us….who knows what trouble we’ll get into!

    I’m new at this also so hopefully I have correctly entered my information above. If not forgive me and set me straight.
    We are sitting here in Nebraska among many weather warning. Some to the west and some to the North. Hopefully none of them come to the ground ( yes tornado’s) It’s nebraska’s way to welcome spring. I am so glad to see what everyone is doing , I hope the house hunting is going well for Matt and Sierra, hope the newest member is being easy on his parents, hope cadance doesnt get into tooooo much trouble ( she wouldnt be normal if she didnt try all of those new things) I hope Leah has a great time this week, I hope Lily is enjoying snowy school, she will be ready to come back to AZ for the summer, even if it’s just to thaw out. I hope Neal can teach everyone how to use this site. I hope I havent forgotten anyone. From us in Nebraska Aunt Wanda
