I really really enjoyed that watching what happened in your weekend. First off my littlest one Matthew(2yr) was watching the kids playing piano video and said woooo awesome!!! And I totally second that. Its impressive to see Maddie play like that at her age. And to watch Brayden was so much fun you can tell he has quite an ear for music- swaying with the sounds that moved him. It really made me tired thinking about everything that you did this weekend. All I can think about right now is laying on the couch. How pathetic is that. Tell the kids what a good job we think they did!!

I was trying to pick which of their songs I liked the best, but I couldn't. All four of them were EXCELLENT. And could I be mistaken thinking that the first song Maddie played was also a song Brayden played once long ago? Either way, they were very fun to watch. CONGRATULATIONS GUYS! Oh and congratulations to you and Rick for surviving such a boring weekend. Maybe next weekend you should get off your couch and do something. Sheesh! :)
