Fine Arts Night

Will had his school program last night: Fine Arts Night. Here he is all ready to go with his brother:And of course we had to take a "Cool Dude" pose:

Each grade sang a few songs and we all had to move in shifts through the gym, because only one grade of parents fit at a time. It was so crowded! The first song was about all of God's creatures singing in the choir, some sing low and some sing higher, some sing out loud on the telephone wire, and some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they got now. (It's a catchy little tune!):

It was a cute song, but had a LOT of words to remember! Did you notice that Will had to take a break and breathe and lick his lips?! Whew!

For the next song they slowed things down a notch and sang about the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Awesome message!


The last song was about the Great Outdoors:

In the library there was an igloo made out of milk jugs:

After the songs, we headed to the art room and got to see some of Will's artwork. Every year the kids do a self-portrait. Remember this from kindergarden? and this from first grade? Well here is this year's:


The moment Sam saw it, he burst out laughing saying, "Will's got pink lipstick!" We tried so hard not to laugh! We knew Will was already self-conscious about this drawing. He said he didn't like it, and in fact said, "You're not going to put that on your blog, are you?" But I couldn't resist! So just don't say anything to him about it, OK?!

3. Lily kept pointing to that cute little girl next to Will in the black and white dress. (Is that Isabelle??)
