~A busy Sunday~

John is off work today, so of course I couldn't just let him have a day off work to relax now could I??

We went to see my grandma and had a really good time!
Brittany took her clarinet and Zac took the guitar and I took pictures.
Brittany made me soooo proud. She played her clarinet like a pro. Grandma about fell out of her chair after she gave Brittany a piece to play {Stranger on the Shore} and Britt played the first half with almost no mistakes! She is so wonderful and so very talented!!

Zac sat down with Grandma and they both had their guitars, both acoustic. Zac didn't play too much but gave it a really good try. He gave up when his fingers started hurting. I am so glad he tried!

Sam was next to sit down with Grandma and the guitars. She gave it a great shot, she played "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and learned some new notes.

Then Brittany on guitar, PaPa Joe sat down with his electric guitar, Britt and Grandma on acoustic. Britt had never tried to play before but learned some notes and decided at that time that she WILL master ALL instruments!

All three of my babies make me so very happy! I was beaming with pride at how well behaved they were and how they interacted with our grand parents and played with them!

Grandma was so very happy to see John again. When she said she was glad he was back and he said that he was very happy to be back, I teared up!
We really have a beautiful and wonderful family! I am so very lucky, so proud and happy. I must have done something right early in life to have what I do now. I don't know what I did but I am so very glad I did it!

Before we went home we stopped at mom's. I just had to have Brittany play "Stranger On The Shore" for mom, I really thought she would tear up. As soon as we got there, though, it got VERY busy. My cousin Maggie and her 4 y/o son came over and then Rosy and the baby showed up. Britt TRIED to play and she did so VERY well but mom was just too busy at that time for it to affect her. Britt is gonna practice more and make mom come HERE so she can listen with no interruptions.

We then went to QT, I bought John some real cigarettes instead of the El Cheap Os we been smokin, cuz he was such a good boy. :evil smirk:
Got the kids some ice cream and came home.

It is about 7:30 and I bet they are really hungry so I need to get up and cook some fast dinner.
School tomorrow!! yippeeeee
Early to bed, early to rise!!

FIRST....Before I go. I need to add that I took my kiddos to a bar last night for some karioke. It is a family place and I got to spend time with my good friends K and her hubby. The night did NOT go as planned, the karioke guy never showed. I think the owners are going to shut it down which is a major bummer. It would hurt my friend so bad because he has put so much into this place. I just don't want to see him hurt.
