Singing

Ben had the opportunity to perform at Abravanel Hall  down in Salt Lake City yesterday. Kids from high schools in Northern Utah were selected to be in the Honor Choir. Ben was selected as a tenor 1 from his school. They've practiced 2-3 times in the last couple of weeks and then performed yesterday.
I wasn't able to attend because of work ( sadness) but DJ and the girls went and said it was really good.

This is what it looks like out our living room window today. It's been warmer this week and we've lost quite a bit of snow but look! here it comes again :)

I thought I would share little snapshots of the living room

 I found these trees at Lowes after Christmas for $2.00 ( originally $16.00). I thought they would be nice for winter decorating. They make my heart happy!

I love the reflection of the cross in the plate.

These skates belonged to one of my aunts when she was 12. She is now 73 or 74.

Oh, I was going to share a Ben story real quick. He was at Panda Express the other night with some other choir kids. Some of the girls were singing "Phantom of the Opera". Ben then sang it in falsetto. Everyone in the restaurant applauded for him which surprised him. I really wish I could have been a fly on the wall!

He does sing in the shower quite often and I love it!
