The
last four days have been vigorous. We competed in the competition two days ago.
Our performance was very satisfying after all the time and effort our
choir has but into each piece individually. No matter what medal we get (which
will be announced tomorrow!) I will be content with our singing in the Games.
...
Anyway,
there are so many amazing, exotic people here! Dad, you will be pleased to know
that I met a Russian girls’ choir. They were well-mannered, talented, and all
wore orange berets. I learned one of the names of the girls among
them—“Katarina”.
I
miss you all a lot. Today’s the 13th so Sim must be coming home.
Sorry I missed Abraham’s Tent. I bet it was funny.
Please write back about what’s going on in

What a wonderful blog. Looks like so much fun. Gracie - write more! Love, Gracie's Mom
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Joey!
ReplyDeleteIt took me this long to figure out how to post on the blog! Hi Chloe! We love seeing the choir's posts and pictures. We all miss you a lot - the house is soooo quiet, but I still have Angel stuck in my head. And happy birthday, Joey.
ReplyDeleteHi Mara!
ReplyDeleteI just learned that with the cards i gave you, you might have to use the 'credit' button instead of the 'debit' button, even though they are debit cards...this is because debit cards usually have a PIN number, and these cards don't use PINs. So try 'credit' if 'debit' does not work.
Love you! Hope you are having fun! Can't wait to hear about it when you get back! We miss you!
Love,
Mom
Hi Joey Steele (AKA Birthday Boy!)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Honey! I didn't know I could send you a message until today. This is the 4th try and I hope it works - you know I am hopeless with computer stuff without your help!
Hope this is your BEST birthday EVER (as Grampa would say!). I am enjoying seeing all the photos and reading all the notes about your fabulous trip. We are very proud of you and all your friends and can't wait to hear all about your awesome trip! Have a wonderful time, honey!
Love, Mommy (and Benson and Zachary Ryan) and all your family and friends!
Hey, Jacy Pippin! We have some funny stories to tell you, and I bet you have some for us. Tonight Aunt Ann and her daughter Karen and granddaughter Ella came over for dinner. They asked about you, and we told them all the good things you are doing. You got a very good letter from Amanda. We'll show it to you when you get here. It sounds like everything is panning out! Much love, Dad
