Piano Recital

Buttercup and Moe had a piano recital on Sunday.
Buttercup played, "The Queen's Royal Entrance"...

...and also played "It's A Small World" duet with her teacher.

Moe played a firey fast song called "Firedance"....and then...

....fist pumped his way off the stage as this was his official last recital.  The teacher is trying to talk him into coming back next year, but he has finished his required 3 years....a family standard that is a part of his homeschool music courses.

It was a nice "coffee shop" type recital and they both did well!  Buttercup kept her 1st Communion dress on for the 4:00pm recital so she was able to wear her special dress almost all day.....

...but when she got home....the dress came off....and as fun as it was to wear it....it felt good to get into play clothes and then head outside to ride bike!!

Piano Recital

Sunday was the piano recital debut for Moe and Buttercup.

It was held 'coffee-house' style in a little cafe that adjoins an historic opera house....which is located in a very unique downtown square.

Buttercup began lessons this winter.....the teacher started working with her for 5 minutes after each of Moe's lessons.  She did wonderfully!



This is Moe's second year of playing piano.  He has learned so much under the guidance of this teacher and played "Music Box Dancer....a favorite of Grandpa's.  He did wonderfully, too.



It was all good.........

down to the last drop....and to the last song.

And it was extra special because Grandma and Grandpa were able to be at the recital.

"Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty.  Magical music never leaves the memory."--Sir Thomas Beecham

Hope you hear some magical music this week!
