Our calendar felt packed with concerts and recitals at the end of the year. The piano recital this year was a mixed bag. Tucker dinked around practicing and failed to master his songs, Anders rocked it, and Lucy for whatever reason had a mental block and her songs were hard for her. She has hated piano lately and we decided to let her quit, which makes me super sad. Maybe we will just let her take the year off. Tucker was going to get fired, but he swore he would stop dinking around and apply himself, and so he is getting another chance. Anders is on the cusp of great things:
Lucy's final orchestra concert was held at the Atlantis and they sounded great. She has also decided to not do orchestra next year. She has too many other classes she wants to take and so will just do private lessons and ensemble.
This was the kid's strings and ensemble concert:
Anders orchestra final concert.
Here is Tucker's concert. They sounded great. Mr. O'Neill does a great job. Tucker also got to go to Music in the Parks, and traveled for a weekend to Vallejo and partied at 6 Flags. They did really well in the competition.

It was nice to be there for Lucy's orchestra concert.

Lucy looks crazy old and mature and beautiful. Bummed that she quit piano - I regret it weekly. But love all the music going on in your house.
High school is tough. That's when I quit piano for lack of time, too. Good on the kids, though, for what they're learning.
Very impressive! Good job, mom! Love the pic of Lucy in the orchestra -- the smile, the look!
