Advanced Music

These are some pictures that Daddy took this past Sunday at Nana and Ye-Ye's house.  They had a collection of frames, and wanted to put some pictures of the family inside the frames.  So bit by bit, Daddy took the family members outside for some portraits.  It will probably always be associated with St. Patrick's Day, as everyone is wearing bits of green.  Madison is wearing a full-on shamrock shirt, just to keep people from guessing exactly what day these pictures were taken!

Today after school, Madison got her new ADVANCED MUSIC booklet.  Yes, she's left the old things behind and is doing something new and scary.  The new books are vertical and more like real piano books.  We spent a lot of the class talking about books, recitals and upcoming events:  speaking of which, the new theme for the recital this year is "MAGIC."  Yes, that's the theme for spring with Mrs. Pam's classes.  We had magic for Winter Wonderland, and now the kids will be at the recital performing in magician outfits, and even singing an ensemble, "Do You Believe in Magic?"

After class, we darted over to the Disney Store.  Daddy gave Madison the ticket, and we proudly walked in - along with all the other little girls - to get her copy of "Frozen."  Yes, today was the day it was released, and there was a big crowd there at the store, ready to pick it up.  We also picked up "Saving Mr. Banks," and a lithograph for pre-purchasing the next Tinkerbell movie, which involves pirates!

There wasn't so much time to actually watch a movie, but we did eat and play some games for a bit.  We read from our Bible, and read a bit more about Ka-Zar too - and then it was time for sleep.  At least for Madison it was.  Mommy and Daddy stayed up a little, watching television and doing a bit of preparation for the upcoming services at KidPak.

All is well - "Frozen" is in our house, so now we can hear "Let it Go" a billion or more times...
