His list includes things like:
*Learn to whistle really loud. [not too successful]
*Learn to make 3 different bird calls using only hands. [way too successful]
*Play Amazing Grace on the harmonica. [actually not as bad as it sounds]
*Juggle [still on the list]
*Learn to make music with a plastic cup. I know that he calls it something, but really it is just a lot of clapping, banging, tapping, and flipping of a plastic cup for at least 10 minutes at a time. [passing fad?]
*Throw a playing card hard enough to stick into a potato [marked up the potato, and at least one brother]
He has also done the following with his summer:
*Read at least 14,000 pages! (This is not a joke, I totally gave it a good estimation.)
*Spent a week at International EFY near Ulm,Germany. He even went to his first dance and danced with girls! from Iceland, Romania, Maldova, and our ward. [There were kids from all over Germany and Eastern Europe. Even one from Afghanistan.]
*Scout camp for a week in Bavaria.
He has managed to :
*Avoid doing his chores until lunchtime.
*Master various games on the Wii.
*Babysit Anya while playing computer games.
*Re-watch all of the Harry Potter movies.
*Lazily lay around the house.
I think this kid is ready to start High School! What more could a kid cram into one summer? I don't think I want to find out.
EFY

Way to go, Davis!!

That is an AWESOME list! And he is easily the cutest boy in those pictures. I bet all the girls were wanting him for their EFY Crush. (Do they do EFY Crushes in the international camps? It is a big deal at BYU EFY).
ReplyDeleteI'm totally hoping to send Micah to an EFY in Europe in a year or two. If you guys are still over there, they can go together!
