Jonathan's 1st Day of 10th Grade

Jonathan started 10th grade at Hope Christian.

Jacob in Pinocchio - Missoula Children's Theater

Jacob starred in Pinocchio, part of Missoula Children's Theater. He was cast as the evil Stomboli. What a fun production!

Lion King Trip with Jacob

Jacob and I took a great trip to Las Vegas to see the Lion King musical. We visited the Hoover Dam and explored the crazy city of Vegas. It was a joy to create such special memories with Jacob.

Bahamas Boy Scout Sea Base Trip

David and Jonathan spent a great week on a sailboat in the Bahamas through the Boy Scout Florida Sea Base Bahamas Adventure. There were 5 Boy Scouts and 3 Boy Scout Dads. The guys had a great week learning to sail and enjoying snorkeling, fishing, and preparing their meals.

Easter 2011

Boy Scout Historic Trails Service Project

We spent three days on the El Camino Real historic trail during spring break. The scouts rebuilt part of the trail as part of a historic trails service project. Since we would be out in the desert for three days, I told David I did not want to sleep in a tent. We rented a camper from outdoor recreation which meant I was a Happy Camper!!! We had a great time.

David's Promotion to Lt Col

We celebrated David's promotion to Lt Col on Tuesday. The day began with almost blizzard-like conditions. Even though the base was officially closed at Noon, David's ceremony happened at 2pm. There is always something exciting when a Mansberger has an event!

Jacob gave the invocation and Jonathan read Scripture. David's dad and brother pinned on his new rank on his shirt. Jonathan, Jacob and Angel took care of his jacket. It was a day to celebrate David's accomplishments. With Mom heavy on Angel's heart, she declared the day a "No Cry Day."
