Brittany sang two songs for her annual recital. As she sang, I heard someone behind me whisper, "Wow!" It really was SO beautiful! Maybe I can somehow post it on You Tube...
Anyway, in the group photo, she is in the back row 3rd from the left in the blue top.
Stay tuned for info regarding her recording career! ;-)
Call it my "thinking spot," if you will. This is where I reflect on Life and what makes the world go 'round.

March, two, three, four, March, two, three, four...
Yes, the month of March is marching on by us! Here it is the 27th day already!
Wow! and today it is snowing! Ick!
I had fun going on the WA Women's Chorale tour with them to St. Louis, MO! It was a short 3 day trip, but that was a perfect amount of time for my first time to chaperone a WA group!
St. Louis is a very impressive city! Both times I've seen it in the last 9 years, it seemed to be a very clean city. I would not want to live that close to the Mississippi River, though! It can be a monster sometimes!
If I can figure out how I imported photos before on this blog, I'll include some of the tour photos.
Cheery-O.

Blessings
I think that the start of a New Year is as good a time as any to stop and count my blessings!
At the top of my list is my husband of 29 years, Jim! If ever you need a model of a servant's heart, look no further because he has it!
Not only did he care tenderly for me when I had the flu two days before Christmas, but he did the same for our son-in-law Derek all day Sunday (12/30/07)! He stayed home with him so the rest of us could go visit my sister and her family, who had my brother and his family over visiting! And it's not only at Christmas that Jim "lives to serve others"...it is a way of life for him! So the Number 1 blessing that I'm thanking the LORD for today is: JIM!

Our Family Christmas 2007
We took our "Christmas" family photo on 12/31/07 this year. This was the year for a "series of misfortunate events".... caused by a flu bug.... that hit Nan on 12/23, Jim on 12/26, Derek on 12/29, and Angelina on 12/31. So Jenelle and Derek changed their 12/31 departure to 1/1/08; Angelina bravely opted to keep her plans as they were to travel back to CA with Grant & Evan on 1/1/08.
Due to snow and inclement weather, all flights were delayed about 1 1/2 hours! We could've stayed home another hour!
Back row: our son-in-law Derek Schmidt, sons Evan and Grant, and "dad" Jim.
Front row: our daughter Jenelle Schmidt, Evan's girlfriend Claire McCarthy, our daughter Brittany Jean, Grant's girlfriend Angelina D'Angelo, and "mom" Nan.
Christmas vacation is over....
