Our week has been pretty normal... work, school, tennis, musical theater, etc... but we have had some fun things happen!
On Monday Amelia's school (OCES) officially moved out to the brand new High Shoals Elem. school to use until the end of the year. OCES is being totally renovated while everyone is gone, and will be ready for them to move back into in August, 2009. At that time HSES will open up to the children who are zoned to go there. Amelia loves the new school, but she says that they do miss their school!
On Wednesday my mission friends class at church packed their boxes for Operation Christmas Child. If you have never heard of this organization, it is well worth your time to look it up and learn more about it. The boxes are packed for a specific age and gender specific and sent all over the world to children. The DVD that we watch is very moving and really shows the excitement of the children when they receive these presents. It is a wonderful learning experience for our children to learn the importance of giving!
As I have probably mentioned before, Amelia will be in the production of "Big" the musical in November. This is her headshot that will appear in the program. She is really growing up!

She's so pretty! The new school stuff sounds great. Has Mitchell met Gabbie Filipov yet?
