Once again another piano recital is complete. Wooo! That's what I always say when they are finished! I am trying to think more outside the box this year for piano. So, for this Christmas recital I told everyone to wear winter clothes, you know, to create the setting! Everyone did very well. Carter played "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear", Caden played, "O Come, O Come Emmanuel." Emery played, "The First Noel" and I played "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow". I had the audience sing to it so they could cover up my unprepardeness!
Hey, wait, where is Katie, the teacher! I think you were gone Katie. Sorry we missed you. Thanks for teaching my children. They do so well because of you and I am so thankful for your abilites and kindness. We love you!
The boys played "Parade of the Toy Soliers", such a cute song that Katie used to play with her sister.
Emery and I played one of my favorites, "O Little Town of Bethlehem". I love her concentration technique of sucking in her cheeks, so cute!
It was fun to imagine that we were in a winter wonderland even though I was sweating after :) Thanks to all my supporters for being there! I love you all!
And, I really needed a group shot of all my students. Oh well, maybe next time!

I love that you had them all bundle up, what a cute and fun idea! I'll have to tag along next time.
Love all the cute hats & scarves! You are so creative!
Someday...and I do mean someday, as in when I have enough time to wear shoes with laces again instead of slip ons. Will you teach me piano? You did so great during the christmas program yesterday! You amaze me! I like the bundled up idea too! Very cute!
Mel - you are one in a million. So talented, and so kind and sweet and creative in your efforts to provide a great experience for your students. They all did so well, as did you and your children. Great work!
What a fun idea to wear touques and scarves - we will let all the non-Canadians figure that one out! Must say that I love your hat, Mel, you look so pretty! Wish I could have been there in the audience to support you! Your students are lucky to have such a dedicated and talented teacher! Love Emmy's concentration too!
Such a cute hat Mel!! And what a fun idea of dressing up. I wish I could have been there to see it!
