Winter Recitals

It wouldn't be December if there weren't recitals going on - they seem to be all be scheduled within a week of each other. It is good for the kids to be able to show off their hard work though. Camille and Jarom have been taking piano for 2 years now and I love hearing them play their songs. (Although I don't enjoy helping them practice!) They are both doing great!

Jarom started the trumpet this year in his father's footsteps. He is loving playing and the band concerts have sounded great! Jarom did tell me that the teacher makes all the kids play him their part to see if they can actually play during the songs in the concert. So what would it sound like if everyone played? FYI- Jarom did get to play!

Jarom participated in the the school spelling bee a few weeks ago for the intermediate grades. He was excited to come home and tell me that he was fourth place! The word that he lost on was piecemeal- he spelled it peacemeal. Way to go Jarom!

Your kids have done such a good job with piano! I hope they are happy with the way the recital went. Congratulations to Jarom on the spelling bee. What a talented kid.
