Donna used this radio to explain how whole families listened intently to the radio before television.


PEACE! NOW! Donna and Grace became 70's peace activists.

Tiffany dancing!

Kyle's lap must be the best. Most of the year Brian sat on Kyle but today Joel needed a human barco lounger.

Donna introduced her husband Gary this morning. I recommended a smooch and they complied. Grace thought it was quite funny.
Our Masters class completed their last presentations outside on the stage today! Brian joined in with the best presentation of all!


Orator Amanda captivated the crowd with her award-winning speech.


Isaac!


Kyle!

Melissa and Jessica!




Poor Kyle is being eaten!

Have you lifted a lion lately? Did you use a lever? We did, we built two types of first class levers!

We used a simple machine to learn how to lift a lion today. Lynnea, as usual, did a fabulous job. Thank you.

Kyle, Pamela and Claire played out the life of Andrew Jackson today.


Claire was a fantastic dueling partner and English soldier. Claire also played the part of the unfortunate duelee with Andrew Jackson.


Red-headed Andrew Jackson (Kyle) is pictured here with his already-married wife (Pamela). Andrew Jackson dueled with a critic of his marriage, our only president to duel. His opponent died and he lived with a bullet in his chest for the rest of his life.

Our CC erupted in laughter when Kyle acted out Andrew Jackson. His mom read that young Andrew had to endure much bullying in school because of his constant drool. With that Kyle let a long stream of water out of his mouth. Several moms screamed in laughter!



Here Andrew Jackson is modeling with his picture on the twenty dollar bill.



Kyle makes a stunning Andrew Jackson.

Revelations 21 reads Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away and there was no long any sea. I saw the Holy City of the new Jerusalem, coming down from heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband....

The wall was made of Jasper and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundations f the city walls were decorated with every kind f precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the sec0nd sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl...

If we believe in Jesus, that he is the Son of God, we will go to heaven. Heaven is a place with a city called new Jerusalem and the earth will be made new and new Jerusalem will be placed on the earth and we will live with God. It is a promise. When loved ones die who know Jesus we have the wonderful assurance that we will see them again, with God, and perhaps at the wall of new Jerusalem. What an amazing sight!

We made walls and streets of gold today to remind us how precious that day will be!


Nathan held his wall up high!


Justinian the Great made his out of pure carnelian.


Caleb's wall has a decorated pattern.


I'm pretty certain we won't see weaponry on the new Jerusalem wall but just in case Joel added a ballistic site.
Thank you Memma Shebby! reads the sign! We love the wobble board and the plasma car you sent for Jack's birthday and our group! Hopefully next year Memma Shebby will be able to join us for a Muscles in Motion!




Kyle the mad man driving the plasma car! Watch out!


Tiffany should be a plasma car model!
