Violin Recital and Blog Anniversary!

Talbie had her violin Spring Recital tonight. She did a great job playing her piece that she'd worked so hard on - more importantly - I survived accompanying them on the piano! Our camera battery died right after we got there but at least we got one picture!! Way to go Talbie!

As I was starting to post this - it hit me that I blogged the recital last year. I checked and sure enough - it was my first blog post. MY BLOG IS ONE YEAR OLD!! I'm excited that I've stuck to it for so long - and even more excited that I enjoy it so much.

If you go back and look at that post, you will notice Emmie in the recital. She had just started but she doesn't take violin lessons anymore. We decided t take a break and wait a year or so until it comes a little easier to her and it doesn't frustrate her so much!

You may recognize the dress from our Easter pictures. It was Maddie's Easter dress. I bought it for her - without her being with me and WITHOUT her permission. She of course hated it (she's so weird) and so it's now Talbie's. I pinned the skirt to fit her an viola! A new outfit! Talbie has an amazing wardrobe because I've learned the hard way and bought MANY things for Maddie that didn't meet with her approval and they go straight to Talbie! Bless you Talbie for being such a sweet, and easy child!
