Percussion People

Elle performed in her 2nd band concert last week.  They played some Christmas songs and of course my heart swelled with pride as we watched her perform.  She had been excited all week for this concert.  She played the triangle, the bells and the marimba!  

We can just barely see her head during the concerts because percussion is always in the very back.

She can't exactly pose with her instrument, so she posed with all the sticks and mallets she needed!

Speaking of percussionist, Uncle Chad got to come see us for the weekend!  Everyone loves Uncle Chad because he's silly and funny and makes us laugh.  Shawn was super excited because he also now had someone who would appreciate it, to go see the new Star Wars movie with.

Our favorite memory from his visit is taking him to see Christmas lights on Saturday night.  We went to a house with an amazing light show and you could turn your radio station to have the lights and music in the car match up.  The song "Let it Go" from the Frozen sound track came on and we all sang AT.THE.TOP.OF.OUR.LUNGS every single word from that song.  We laughed for a while about that.
