Memorial Day Weekend



We had a great weekend. We drove down on Friday and stopped at Maddox for dinner (always yummy). Saturday, we went to the Vietnam Memorial Moving Wall. We happened to time it right as they were doing a program. So we were able to see the HAFB 21 gun salute and the bagpipes as they played Amazing Grace while walking along the wall. Then we rode the Front Runner to SLC and went to the outside mall(name?). Zach, Katie and I went to the IMAX presentation "Under the Sea" in 3D at the Planetarium. It was very cool. We rode the Front Runner back to Ogden and went to dinner at Pizzeria (my favorite). Sunday, we went to breakfast, then to the cemetery. It was raining soooooooo hard and cold!!! We were supposed to have a bbq at the park but it was too cold so we stayed at Pam's. I was able to spend time with all of my family which is the best!!! Monday morning we went to see Brianna for her birthday - she's 3!! We had a gift for her and poor Brendan look so sad.....eventually Kevin game him a gift too so he was happy. Brianna got a talking mirror with the Disney princesses and lipstick and they both got bubble toys. We had a great time in Ogden and as always it's hard for me to go home.

Piano Recital

Tuesday May 19th was my piano recital. Everyone did pretty good! I had a couple of students who had chosen really challenging pieces and I prayed they would nail them and they did! I love the look I get as they leave the piano.....they quickly look at me and you can see them trying not to smile. It's so rewarding. Everyone received their composer statue for guessing the mystery composer. It was a great night and always great to have over - at least for another year.
