Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas together!  On the Eve we made Hawaiian food. It was such a treat for us. We made everything but the squid luau, which we ordered from Highway Inn. Everything was just perfect and we are having a lot of leftovers in the next few days!!

The house was perfect!!  It had all the Christmas vibes!!

Christmas morning was festive as well. Lillie got some nice things. 

The best gift was Lillie’s sweet gift to us. She wrote out little cards, all homemade and folded intricately, with the twelve days of Christmas. On each card we’re things she was thankful for about us. Beginning with one thing through twelve. It was very thoughtful and made us feel that we are indeed lucky to have our little Lillie!  It was such a great Christmas!!

Christmas is music!!

We just love playing our music together during the Christmas season!  

Lille plays in her high school musical

About two months again, Lille was asked if she wanted to play in the pit orchestra of her high school musical!  Since then it has been such a learning experience. First of all she is the only first violin. There are a total of four string players and some band instruments. So they are totally vulnerable. And it was a lot of music to learn. And it was difficult. High registers, difficult time and key signatures and difficult rhythms. But did such a good job learning and practicing with the group. Last night was the parent night. The musical was so good. It was Little Women. The pit orchestra did an amazing job!! We were so impressed with the singers and the orchestra. They were amazing.
