The Sunday before Thanksgiving was Evan's primary program and so Rick, Jenna, and I went to their ward to watch. Evan did well! They had the teachers of each class come up and say a few words about their class and introduce their students. Then they had mock classes up on the stand near the sacrament table with two teachers holding a microphone and their class sitting in a half circle around them. They would ask their class questions and then have the students respond. Evan did well, especially since they accidentally put him in the wrong mock class and so he had to answer a question that he wasn't prepared for. But he handled it well and when it was his turn he answered "be nice," which was an appropriate answer for the question.
Evan sang the songs well. The program leaders had the nursery kids come sing a song or two also and so Eli got to participate. There was a temporary hiccup when he dropped whatever it was he was holding for the song because he wanted a different one. But thankfully he recovered. The program was really cute! The one drawback was that it must not have been timed out very well and it went over by a good twenty minutes! The other ward was anxiously waiting to get in as everyone was leaving. We headed home and then Jase and Ellen and the kids came over for dinner later.
