Gong Show

Bishop Ryan celebrates Catholic Week every year.  There are fun activities planned for the entire week for the school.  Every year the week wraps up with a Gong Show (talent show).  Some years the kids really get into it and others it's just ok.  My children have never opted to be involved in this before.....Alec decided that he and three of his friends were going to do something this time and no one was going to know what it was until the show.  Now keep in mind...my son doesn't usually like to draw attention to himself. So this is quite a step for him :)













They borrowed the costumes that Steve & Jodi Pederson and Rod & I wore a couple years ago for Halloween.  Alec is Gene Simmons (if you can't tell) :)  For those of you who know his friends..(in order of how they are standing)...Sam Ebert, Justin Terness & John Bessett :)

Just Like a Fish

A couple weeks ago, Erin decided to join the jr. high swim team.  Now keep in mind that she hasn't "officially" swam since 2nd grade.  She joined the team a week late and had a meet right off the bat.  The little stinker took 2nd or 3rd in all her races.  Not bad for never having swam competively before :)
