Brittany had her Versailles choir concert tonight. They did an outstanding job as usual and we are very proud of her efforts.
They also sang a number with the other audition group, Voices of the Pride…
Awesome job Brittany! You always excel at everything you do! 🙂
Today was a crazy day! We helped the Pedersen’s (friends of ours) move. Zach came with me while Grandma and Grandpa watched Ben. After that, Brittany held her Birth Rocks Internship Luncheon which Angela helped with. It turned out really nice, and even though the attendance wasn’t too high, they had a really enjoyable time. Great job getting all this together Brittany! You Rock!
Tonight was Musical Night 3! Grandma and Grandpa went again to see it and said it was even better than night 2! Great job Kirstyn!
Kirstyn started the CVHS Musical tonight… Once Upon a Mattress! Mom and Dad Halliday drove from Utah to come and see/support her. She did a GREAT job and we’re so proud of her. Pictures to come tomorrow!
Today, Ben and Zach had “Historical Figure Day” at school. They both thought long and hard about what they wanted to be and eventually they decided on a medieval knight and Davy Crockett!
They had a blast at school playing their parts!
Tonight, Zach had his 4th Grade Musical Performance! It was all about Colorado and its history. He had a little solo “rap” part and it was cute!
Zach wore his Cub Scout shirt as did some of the other kids to show their spirit. All the kids did a great job and seemed to really enjoy the program as did all of us as parents. 🙂
We have been really impressed with Aspen View and are VERY glad that we decided to have the boys go there!
Great job Zach!
This afternoon Brittany and the Versailles Choir performed at the Broadmoor Hotel and Resort in Colorado Springs as part of the Colorado Music Educator’s Association (CMEA) conference. Only a small number of elite choirs are selected to perform for the state music educators and it is quite the honor.
They sang their 4 songs and sounded AWESOME! We’re really proud of you Brittany! This is a great experience for you!
Tonight, Versailles, the women’s choir that Brittany sings with at school had a practice concert at the 1st United Methodist Church in Castle Rock. They were practicing for the CMEA (Colorado Music Educator’s Association) conference event they were accepted to sing at. It is quite the honor! They did a great job singing.
We’re excited to go see them perform on Thursday the 23rd at the Broadmoor Hotel/Resort in Colorado Springs. 🙂 Way to go Brittany!
Today we had a busy Saturday as we usually do. Zach had a basketball game (which they won)! He got a couple rebounds and actually got a shot off. Unfortunately, it didn’t sink but it was close. 🙂 Kirstyn had musical practice all day which she loved but came home dead tired. We helped a sister in the ward move, Kirstyn had a babysitting job, Brittany had work and a dental appointment, and Angela and I had a date night. We went out for a quick dinner and that was about all the time we had. 🙂 Craziness!
Today the kids all went back to school! They had mixed feelings about it. Brittany is SO ready to be done with school and graduate! 🙂 Kirstyn is now in full swing with musical practice and she is SO excited to be doing that! Best of luck on a new semester kids!
The last day of finals was today! No more Statistics class for Brittany! She is SO excited to be done with that! The boys still had to go to school today but are done after today until the break is over in January.
Today, Ben got a gold certificate for his behavior! He went above and beyond and was rewarded for it.
He was SO excited! Not only did he get the certificate, but he got to go to the Principal’s office and get some gold chocolate coins! 🙂 Great job Ben! Way to be an awesome student!
Tonight we attended our 5th concert of the week, but we only had one tonight (in addition to having to run Zach to his basketball practice and barely making it to the concert)! 🙂 Brittany and the Chamber Orchestra did a GREAT job and they sounded wonderful!
Great job playing Brittany!
Today was absolutely crazy! We had 3 concerts for the kids. We were run ragged by the time they were over. We went to Kirstyn’s, then ran Zach over to his right after that and watched his, then ran right back over to Brittany’s concert and watched hers. They all did a GREAT job! We also bought the CD of the girl’s concerts. For Zach, this was his first concert, and the first concert for the new Aspen View Academy. 🙂
Great job kids! We love the fact that you love music and enjoy singing (and playing your instruments)!
