Italian Ukulele's

With a nice house to live in and some great friends, we thought we'd have all of those great friends over and have a dinner. We went with Italian and boy was it a good choice. The food that was prepared by all was delicious and the wine was also just as tasty. We ate, laughed, talked, drank, laughed and just continued to hang out. It was such a great night and a good thing to have in the middle of the week, especially with the school year ending next week.
Two days later there was a Ukulele Jam/Concert at the school. Middle school students are required to take ukulele/music class. Some hate it while the majority either enjoys or loves it and it shows. There are some really talented ukulele players in our school. The had an awesome majority of music, some special guests playing along with them and doing solos. It was different than any other school event I've been too and I loved it. Helped us remember what a fun, loving, creative school we work at.
Today is Saturday and we are both helpin run the All-Schools Track and Field meet. It started yesterday at 4-9 and today will be from 8-2 (which island time of 2 will most likely be 4) So it'll be a long day. But another great way to spend getting to know the students better. We have some amazing kids at the school and the more we get to know them personally andoutside of school the more friendships we create and the more God continues to use us both. We are happy.
Love,
J & J
