Feel Again

 



Hi,
This past couple days Megan, Lauren, and Hannah came down to visit and it was a lot of fun!
While they were here we created a video to the song "feel again" by "one republic."  Unfortunately Hannah was at a friends house so she is not in this video.
Thanks for the awesome time guys!
I hope you enjoy!

Hi!

Hello Everyone!
I'm sorry I haven't blogged in a very long time...);
Things have been going well here in the USA!  Not quite as exciting as India, but oh well there are some interesting things happening! 

                      School is going well and we just recently had a Fall Frolic (Fall School Pary/Activity) which had food, drinks, games, a rock band, face painting, a cake walk, and other lots of fun things!  I got a zebra face painting (I know, it's hard to picture) Sam got a cat face painting (easier to see!) and Isabelle (She is a friend of mine from School) got a butterfly painting!  Benett (A friend of ours in 9th grade who we know from orchestra, school, etc...) he got a famous painting I forgot what it's called, but anyway it was pretty funny...

                    Daddy is back from India for 2 weeks and It is great to have hime back!  Although at the present he is at a couple meetings about 3 hours away until tomorrow!  He will be back for good before ThanksGiving so at least we will get to spend that with him!!!

                   Orchestra is going amazing and it is a lot of fun!  Since Sam and I are both in the higher groups in the quadcities we get to perticipate in the Holiday Fun at a big building that is pretty popular!!!  So that is awesome!!!  Our concert is coming up very soon and I am looking foward to it, but I am also a little nervous!

                   We also have a school choir that I am participating in in the mornings!  It is pretty fun and we are singing some of my favorite christmas songs!!!  We get to sing the Alvin and The Chipmunks song Christmas Time Is Here!!! And the song from The Charlie Brown Christmas!!!

                  Well, I have to go!  Have a great day/night! 
Mak!

School Days part 2

Hey everyone!
How are all of you? Hopefully fine:)
School is going pretty well! My favorite classes are math, science, and P.E., but I like them all! There is a boy In 6th grade (Mrs. Betts class) that looks like a big Benjamin!!! The 1st time I saw him he looked so much like him that If he was any smaller I would've mistaken him for Benjamin:) It is kind of funny!! The other funny part is that he was home-schooled! There is a girl named Jenna who is pretty sweet! Linnzie is also sweet! Isabelle also!!! I sit with Alex, Jennifer, Peyton (boy), and Donavan at my table group! They are all pretty nice!
Again, I miss all of my little kiddos and wish they were here...:(
Talk to you later...

Mak:)

This is Julie's baby!!!
And Laura and Kate!

School Days

Hey everyone!
Sorry I haven't blogged in so long... Since I last posted one big thing has happened. I started public school 6th grade with Mrs. Notton. This is pretty fun, although I do miss Mommy quite a lot. This is my last year in elementary school and that is pretty exciting. It also means that we are the "big dogs" at the school and we have many advantages. 1. We get to pick where we sit at lunch. 2. We get to walk the kindergarteners out. 3. We get to do band, recycling, and help the kindergarteners with their books so this is pretty fun! We also get to participate in an Opus Choir that actually gets to go to state. You try out and if you are chosen you get to go to the university to perform. We also get to do orchestra from 7:30 to 8:20 in the mornings on Tuesdays and Thursdays!
I am also participating in the Youth Philharmonic Orchestra and Sam is in the Youth Symphony Orchestra!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Daddy is going back and forth between India and is now presently there!
It is very hard having him there!!!!
It also sad knowing that some of our friends are there!
Well, that's about it!
Blog soon...

Last Day of Summer Vacation

Hello everyone!
Sorry I haven't blogged In forever...
This past week we have been at our grandparents house enjoying the green grass, fresh air, and coolness of Minnesota! We also attended a VBS there in which we met two little sweet hearts Lidia and Kelanie!
On the way home from Grandma's house we stopped in Des Moines and attended the Iowa State Fair!!!!!!!!! That was a blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm already looking forward to next year!
Now here the sad part of this post...(ok it's not horrible) we are starting school tomorrow, which means our lovely summer vacation Is over.....I am a bit sad, nervous, excited, dreading, looking forward to it all at the same time...
So tomorrow morning it is...
