Hannah won 3rd place at the Dallas Solo piano competition. So proud of all her hard work. She is learning so many great life skills in addition to music.
The 4th graders at school did a Veteran's Day program. Their music teacher did a fabulous job putting this together and all the kids worked really hard.
We had a great Thanksgiving break...love that we are out of school the whole week. We mostly hung out at home, but Nathan did take one extra day off work and we went to the Ft Worth Zoo. It was a little chilly, but not miserable. All in all a super fun day.
Our choir and orchestra Christmas concert was really really good. Both girls sang in the children's choir and they sang in a smaller select ensemble as well. Hannah was also asked to memorize and recite the Luke 2 Christmas story as an introduction to one of the songs. She did a AMAZING job! So proud of her. (photo credit Tuyen Le)
2nd Grade also did a school program this year. It was winter/holiday themed. Abigail's favorite song was "Mr Grinch." It was super cute and the kids (and music teacher) worked really hard to put it all together.
Hannah is super excited to have finally hit double digits, but mommy is STRUGGLING! Swear she was just born yesterday. Her birthday pictures turned out super cute though!
We had a nice low-key Christmas. We enjoyed lots of yummy food, Christmas sing-along, and opened presents. The weather wasn't Christmasy but 70 degrees instead. My dad got the girls a remote control car so they took it up to the school parking lot to play for a while. All in all it was a great day.
I'll leave you with the 6th Annual edition of jammie pictures in front of the Christmas tree.
