Tomorrow is the big day - or should I say night?  I taught my last rpm class this morning, finished up the weeks laundry, and typed up a schedule for the kids -  I think we are OFFICIALLY READY!

Here are some pictures from this weeks events...
Joshua & Beau at the Temple

Joshua & Emma at the Temple Lights

Beau checking out "Je-th-us" in the Visitor's Center

Emma playing in her very FIRST piano recital!  She played "Jolly Old St. Nicholas".

Logan playing "Away in a Manger"  and "Oh Little Town of Bethlehem" at the recital. 
 (You would never know that he threw up in the retention a few hours earlier...happy day.)

Joshua playing "You Raise Me Up" and "Winter Wonderland" at the concert.  I have to say this was quite an accomplishment for everyone....HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS of practicing to get these songs memorized.  But, he did it.  I am very impressed - especially because I can't play either one of these songs - well I could if I practiced.  :-)
Ben and his Dad - Ed was the hit of the program.  He is SO SO TALENTED on the piano - thanks for being willing to share you talent!

Lori & Mom playing "Sleigh Ride" duet
