I FINISHED a project!

Yep, you can mark this date on your calendar:  Gail started AND FINISHED a project!  Of course, it was a simple set of background curtains that took me all day, but the fact remains that I FINISHED them.  This shouldn't be such an enormous accomplishment, but it is and I'm going to revel in it :)

We got a flat panel TV about a year-and-a-half ago and just got rid of our old TV a few days ago.  That left a gaping hole showing in the back of our ancient entertainment center (circa 1992, seriously) with unattractive cords hanging down behind it.  Sooooooo, I decided to dig up some neglected fabric from my GPUP (Giant Pile of Unfinished Projects) and make some curtains to hide the eyesore.  Here's what I came up with.  Oh, and did I mention...I FINISHED them?!?  Woohoooooooo!

Laura Goes Pop Culture

Laura & her middle school Wind Ensemble gave a fabulous concert last night!  I can't believe a bunch of 12- and 13-year-olds can make such beautiful music.

This was one of the more fun pieces, "Pop Culture."  Here's a clip I think all my fellow children of the 70's will get a special kick out of :) 

Ginger's Orchestra Concert - I think you'll recognize that first SOLOIST!

This is a gorgeous piece of music called Czardas, and it was made even more beautiful by my lovely daughter playing the first solo!
