Day 269 - strings and such

today was lukes first day of orchestra.  he decided that he would like to play the bass.  i assumed he would join a number of young strings enthusiasts but we quickly found out that he is the only 5th grader playing bass!  lots of one on one instruction - whoo hoo!!  although it means getting him to the highschool an hour early two days a week i am thrilled that he is doing this.  i am even more excited by his enthusiasm to play.

who knew we would be a strings family :)  caleb is equally excited for luke and his encouraging words never cease to amaze me.

in other news - lilly successfully juggled 10 times without letting the ball drop.  to say she was excited would be an understatement.  guess who gets to go out to breakfast this coming week?  way to go lilly - keep up the good work!!
