Luke Shakes It

Luke can't help but move his body when he hears music. It doesn't matter if it's hymns at church, Ben's guitar, or songs on the radio. He can't resist anything with even a hint of rhythm. Sometimes he subtly sways back and forth. At other times he goes all out with dance moves reminiscent of Axl Rose's sidewinding stage theatrics.

Emma's First Piano Recital

Emma had her first piano recital on January 23rd. She's been taking lessons since last September and loves it! She has a natural talent for music and is able to learn quickly. She's beginning to play songs with both right and left hand now and is so proud of herself. We are too! The two songs she performed were "We Love Music Class" and "Good King Wenceslas." We treated her to lunch at Chili's (her favorite restaurant) afterwards. A fun Saturday!

Fun with Aunt Ali

Wow, I sort of fell out of the blogosphere for awhile there. It seems like every January I don't take pictures, probably because I've overdosed on pictures at Christmastime. But I did take the camera with me on Monday when my cute little sister Alexandra was in town. We headed over to Kangaroo Zoo for some bouncing fun. The kids had a wonderful time with her--we only get to see her a few times a year. So this was a big deal!






We love you Aunt Ali!
