AND, THE REUNION GETS CRAZIER

PART OF A LONGER PERFORMANCE is this video of Julia Baker singing "He's got the Whole World in His Hands" in Kazakh. The other childfren sang, did a scarf dance, and made up some songs with actions all their own.

ANOTHER VIDEO of the kids performing. They seem always to decide that they have some important gifts to share.....and they do!

THE FINAL VIDEO gives a wonderful look at a child losing a tooth. Maddie had a bottom front tooth that was so loose that it laid flat in her mouth. Two bills, a $20 and a single nudged her to flip out the tooth all by herself. She was pleased. Hope you enjoy the video.

During the day, Andrew took passengers out on Shawano Lake for pontoon rides.

The shoreline is not so hilly, but when one takes a panoramic shot from a pontoon boat, there tend to be ups and downs both on the watercraft and on the shoreline.

Athena loves the pontoon ride.



Julia Baker loves the pontoon ride, too. Andrew took us to Lake Washington.

 Madison Richter thought that this "homely" toad was just so very special that she decided to show it to everyone who was willing to take a closer look. Of course, there were some who wanted no part of it!

 Nathan and Holly enjoy a brief moment alone from the crowd with some special beverages.

 John and Miriam entertain the kids with some of the tallest tales ever heard..............

While Esther wows the hearts of the adults with her warm fun-loving manner.

Asher was mighty proud of his sunfish (bluegill). He also caught others including a northern pike.

Jacob and Braeden and a few other guys were out on the pontoon later in the evening to catch these nice two largemouth bass.
