A Day with the Orchestra...

Jordan had her concert Sunday and it was wonderful. I love string music. There was a tuba soloist from Minnesota (Uncle Kenny would have liked it being a fellow tuba player). He was wonderful and only practiced twice with the group. The whole group did a wonderful job. Jordan wrote in the Christmas letter that she couldn't have dreamed this 5 years ago that she'd be playing violin let along playing in an orchestra. It is a dream come true. She truly loves the violin. We listened to the Junior High Orchestra before Jordan's group and Emily wants to practice more so she could try out next year. We'll see what she can do. She would need to get real busy (not because she's so bad but because she doesn't love it like Jordan does so it does not come as easy). She doesn't spend as much time on it. We are all like that. We spend time on those things we think are the most important to us.
