The Ithaca Ward

We are spending this week in Ithaca so that Tony can teach at the ASTA (American String Teachers Association) camp, and Nicholas can attend it. We got here yesterday because Tony had meetings, but the campers didn't start until this afternoon.
We went to church this morning at the Ithaca Ward, and I enjoyed catching up with the few people who are still there. I took a few pictures. I don't remember names of everyone, but they all remembered someone in the Bateman family.

I was looking forward to seeing the Ballantynes, and was surprised(but not too much) to find out that they are serving a mission in Scotland. I saw Brother Fairbanks, Diane Moore, Patti Wallace, and a few other people whose names I don't recall. They said to please say hello to the family, and they send their love!

Fun picture to share

I had to post this picture of Rachel because it is too funny. I bought Rachel a baby doll stroller and some dress up shoes. She has been introduced to both at other people's houses, so I knew she would love them. Anyway, this picture made me laugh.


Close up on the shoes.


If that doesn't make you laugh you may have broken your funny bone.
