Garrett's violin debut

This last weekend we drove up to Corinne's in Pleasant View.

Garrett who is 10 was playing his violin in Sacrament meeting. He asked us if we would come and listen to him play. It was worth the quick trip up. Corinne switched her shift at the temple so she could have the afternoon off on Saturday. We left Saturday morning to drive up.

We went to Arctic Circle for dinner.

Now when we visit with Corinne, I finally understand life with boys. It's just more active, Boys are silly and crazy and loud and do weird stuff. I no longer feel the need to have order. It's much more enjoyable and easier to just let things be what they are. It's nice. 

 Spencer likes to play games with Grandpa and talks to him a lot. Fred is very good to listen and play with Spencer. 

 As always - Spencer.

 Sunday morning breakfast - waffles and strawberry sauce & whipped cream.

 and ice cream......

 Games with Grandpa.

 Games at the table. 1:00 church.

 Richard is playing the clarinet in school. This is Shannon's clarinet. His tone is really good. 

 Garrett played I Stand All Amazed and Corinne accompanied him.

His first few notes were not in tune, but he got straightened out and stayed focused.

We were very proud of him. He really did a nice job.

 Spencer ran off to Primary so we didn't get a picture of him after Sacrament meeting. Henry fell asleep. We left after Sacrament meeting. It's a five hour drive and I like to get home before too late because I have to go to work in the morning. We got home about 8:15 pm.

 I like taking a picture of Fred taking pictures. 

It was a very nice weekend. I'm glad we went. We will go back up in January when Spencer is baptized.
