Horizon Choir Christmas Concert

My kids really love singing in the school choir!  I am relieved that I am not the director.  I was very glad to hand that job back to the teacher at the school.  She had to take a break for a year and help her daughter with a set of twins, so needless to say I am glad she's back.  It was a bigger job than I thought!
Anyway, Tait and Tiernan love performing and singing, and the choir is SO great this year.  Just listen to them on the video below!

 
Here is Tiernan and her good friend Haley! She lives behind us and they have so much fun together. They are both in the choir along with Aydia their other really good friend!

Christmas Piano Recital~ Let it Snow!

This year's piano recital was so much fun!  Thank you so much Melanie for being such a wonderful, inspirational teacher to my children!  Instead of the traditional "Sunday Clothes" for this year's recital, Melanie asked them to dress in winter apparel so we could pretend it was a winter wonderland, in Saint George.  I thought it was a GREAT idea.  Tait played "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day", Tiernan played "Bring a Torch Jeanette", and Amara played "Away in a Manger".  Then they played duets.  Tait and Tiernan played "Jingle Bells" and Tiernan and Amara played "Oh Come All Ye Faithful".  After all the kids were done playing, Melanie played "Let it Snow" and we all sang along :)  My Favorite! After the wonderful recital, we went and ate dinner at Bajio with our good friends, The Melo's!  We are so blessed to be able to take piano lessons again.  We really missed it last year.  Thanks Melanie!  We love you!
