Catch-up

Well, after Ballet Recital week and Drama Camp week, (and a week for recovery), There’s quite a few thing’s I have to post about. The first is a really cool partial eclipse of the sun my family watched on May 20. The moon crossed the surface of the sun, and though it wasn’t safe to look at directly, we saw it projected through a pinhole on a piece of paper. Someone took a bite out of the sun!

Dad also got out his welding helmet to look at it:

The next piece of excitement at our house was a little baby robin who seemed to have been blown out of his nest prematurely. His parents fed him on the ground, but none of his younger siblings survived. So he hopped around our yard for a week and a half, unable to fly. When the daddy robin wasn’t around, we fed him berries and worms.

Then it was time to start Drama Camp, which went for two weeks this year since we were doing a musical this year. I was the main girl character, and I loved my costume:

Landon was also in the musical, in the chorus:

    Did you find the bird siblings dead in the nest? What do you think happened? At first, you would think how unfortunate it was for the young one to blow out of the nest, but here he is the only one who survived, maybe because of human assistance.
    You really caught Landon “singing out”! Good job, Landon.
    The flowers on the picket fence are a pretty & so appropriate backdrop for you, Sarah.
    You must have very strong vocal cords to be able to scream & recover enough to sing so beautifully. Your screams were even good. If I scream (at a spider?) it makes my voice sore. : )
