Updates...

I got a check in the mail today from the wedding couple. They apologized for having missed me after the wedding and said the music was beautiful. Awesome!

The girls are still enjoying their play practices (taking after their mother without the Perkins part, yet). Their performances are next week already. The show is really taking shape nicely. I tie-dyed their shirts tonight with some other parents and cast members. It was fun and I hope they turn out really cool. I'm a believer in don't try too hard to create a pattern - just slop it on and hope for the best. We'll see in about a week how they turned out.

Today Megan started Band Camp -- no not THAT band camp and she doesn't even play flute!! She is taking up percussion. She loved the first day and is excited to go back tomorrow.

I heard about a cool Monster Concert that I decided to take part in. It is a piano recital kind of event except instead of each person playing a solo, there will be five pianos on stage at the Belle. Five pairs of players will play the same song at the same time. It is going to be so neat. I am playing Chopsticks Here and There. I have the lower part with kind of oompa-pas for most of my part. Karli will be playing a song called Ladybug, Ladybug and Megan is playing My Dog Has Flea. I will play the duet part with them both also. I had my first rehearsal tonight and it sounded great to have both parts together. The performance will be October 19th. I'm sure I'll have more posts about it as we get closer. Maybe I'll be able to post a little video of the performance (if I can figure out how to do that).

I need to get to bed. Hope you're having a great day!
