Wells Family Band


Debi Wells along with daughters Eden, Jade and Sara
and bass player Phillip Bishop presented a wonderful
program of their music to children and parents
at the "Be Creative @ Your Library" event
at the Public Library of Johnston County and
Smithfield.

Debi Wells allows children to experience the heavy
weight of the banjo by briefly resting the banjo in
their hands. Debi and family are great teachers. The
musical experience was not just entertainment it
was learning in a fun way.


Sara Wells smiles along with some fans in the
library during the visit of Grandma from Charlotte, NC.


Eden encourages this young fan who might
one day want to play bass with the Wells Family Band.


Phillip Bishop was a big hit with the young fans.

Going Green at the Library


Professional Window Tinting of Selma
applies a film to the windows that will add
insulation value to the windows and block out harmful UV rays.


There will be an immediate difference of 10 to 15 degrees of temperature
because of the reflective properties of the film.


David Poste says that the birds that sit and eat seeds from the plants
near the window will not be able to see inside so they will
not fly away if someone walks near to watch the birds.


They provide Residential and Commerical window tinting services.

Wilson's Mills Elementary Read In Day


Read In Day
Wilson's Mills Elementary School
May 1, 2009

Mrs. Johnson's Classroom on Read In Day


Bubba and Trixie by Lisa Campbell Ernst is
one of my favorite books to share
with Children.


Mrs. Johnson's students were very good
listeners and I loved their hats.


It is always fun to visit Wilson's Mills Elementary School
to read books to the students.


Read In Day at Wilson's Mills was
fun for me and I hope the
books I read to the
children will be remembered
for days to come.


Thank you Wilson's Mills Elementary for
allowing me to visit your school
and read to some of your
students.

Read In Day with Mrs. Culpepper's classroom



The schedule was pretty tight so I just read one
book with Mrs. Culpepper's classroom.
