Solos and Snacks

Whew. I'm glad the weekend is here!M played his concerto beautifully at the concert on Wednesday and received a standing ovation! I am really glad that we ordered a DVD of the event.P had her kindergarten concert  on Thursday. It was pretty fun to watch. Kindergartners can be very wiggly. I think it is a good thing that they worked in a lot of hand motions with the songs.Tomorrow P will have her "Twinkle Cupcake Party." She has learned to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with five different bowings on the cello. She is giving a little recital and there will be "after snacks." P has informed us that her favorite kind of concert is the kind with after snacks. The concerto concert had an after reception, the kindergarten concert did NOT. We had to get our own after snacks after her performance on Thursday. SO, today we will make cupcakes.Have a great weekend and I hope you can fit in some crafting fun or something that you WANT to do.

I’m finally getting around to putting these stars together. I made the stars a few years ago and have been on the hunt for the perfect setting fabrics. These @carolynfriedlander prints are the perfect match for the 1800s reproduction prints in
