There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

JULY 20, 2012 -- "JONAH'S DRUTHERS"

JULY 20, 2012 -- "JONAH'S DRUTHERS"
UBC Music Camp 2012

Today was the last day of the Bible Music Camp at University Baptist Church.  We had such a great time 2 years ago at the UBC Music Camp that the kids participated again this summer!  Melissa's super good friend, Kailey, directed the music this year and the kids loved that!!!
The theme was a western version of "Jonah and the Whale."  Two of the characters were "Taylor Swifty" and then there was a special appearance of  "Jonah's Brothers" at one point!  It was a cute show!
Here are rehearsal pictures with performance pictures below!

Bethany is on the back row, fourth from the right and Rachel fifth from the right.  Daniel is in a white t-shirt just in front and to the right off Bethany's shoulder.  Matthew is on the next to the back row, 3rd from the left in a white shirt.

David was an awesome square dancer!
Watch David Square Dance!!


Daniel had a great speaking part!
Bethany sang a solo and sounded amazing!

Rachel recited a scripture!


After the Friday rehearsal, we went to lunch at Jason's Deli and then by the library and then the kids were back for dress rehearsal at 3pm.




Mason and the rest of us love that all you can eat ice cream!!
