Choir Assessment

Pete was pouring his Cocoa Pebbles into the bowl and asked Dad if he smelled anything odd in his bedroom. Dad said no. Pete said he saw a little bit of smoke up there. Dad said “What?” Pete said “April Fools!” Here is where you can see that Sam has a darker sense of humor. Earlier in the morning, he had told Dad his idea of punching Mom in the kidney and saying “April stools!” Dad did fool Sam also, by asking him whether he wanted his sweatshirt if it is 26 degrees outside.

In the evening, Mom and Dad went to Riverside High School to see Pete’s choir get their assessment. They did two songs – Dawn and Wana Baraka. In the second song, Pete started it out with a very impressive solo (with some minor vocal accompaniment from Joel and Tiger). Apparently he didn’t find out until a few minutes before the performance that he would be doing that. The group scored a 2 (excellent) for their singing and 1 (superior) for sight reading.
