All About Quinn

Quinn's teacher made this great poster all about Quinn.

My favorites are that he likes asparagus & grapefruit,

and that his favorite TV show is "This Old House".

He is the only kid in his 2nd grade that hasn't lost any teeth.

Christmas is coming...

The first weeks of December always mean

nativity performances and choir concerts.

Emma's children singing group performed some beautiful numbers

this year. I especially enjoyed "When I Close my eyes" and

"And the Angels Sang". The later was performed with an up

and coming opera singer and accompanied by harp & cello.

It was so beautiful I had tears in my eyes.

They also had an additional concert where they sang back up for

David Benoit in "A Charlie Brown Christmas".

I can hardly believe the amazing experience my daughter had to sing

on stage with such professional musicians.

She is getting some great musical training.

Quinn and friend Nate were shepherds in the live nativity this year

and this was their first time without a parent.

They are growing up!

Quiet Time

I love this picture of my sweet boy
