Fa La La

My family kinda sorta maybe really likes music!  D made the regional choir a few weeks ago.  The choir sounded amazing!  It's pretty cool to hear the regions best high school singers come together and perform something they have only practiced together for two days.  D and J had their high school choir concert.  My mom thought the songs they sang were a little different.  My dad loved them!  Our family went to the musical, WICKED last weekend.  I have wanted to see this musical for a loooong time!  I was so excited!  I already knew all the music and was so excited to finally see the musical.  It was incredibly well done!  I absolutely adore the story!  D made All-State Choir too!  Rumor has it, the director for his choir... Mack Wilberg (musical genius and director of Mormon Tabernacle Choir).  What a cool experience that will be if he is!  Yesterday, we went to The Piano Guys concert as a family.  If you don't know who they are, look 'em up!  They are ahhh-mazing and such good entertainers!  We laughed and loved every minute of it!  A is learning Jon Schmidt's piano song, Waterfall.  She practically has it finished and will be performing it at her next piano recital.  It is so cool to hear that song played on our family piano!  J has picked up his guitar again and we jam out to songs like, You and Me, Collide, Come & Get Higher, and Your Guardian Angel.  He is pretty stinkin' good!  He is looking forward to starting up lessons again!  D's choir is also going to Skywalker Studios at the end of this month - you know, where Star Wars music was recorded.  Music is the best!
 
Love this quote about music...
