Recital Time............

It is that time of year that I have dreaded ever since I was nine. Come spring time you knew that Mrs. Smith was planning her recital and at any lesson she would let you know that you didn't have to play in the recital,but she really wanted you to. I was able to get out of it for a couple years until my mom started taking lessons and if she played at the recital I really had no excuse not to play. That year I believe I play The Little Church in the Wildwood, which I remember wanting to play because I could play it REALLY fast and also that Mrs. Smith didn't care for it that much. She did get her revenge though.........

Well now it is my turn to be in the teachers position,and it isn't any easier. This year is really hard since I have more families to try and work a recital around their schedule. Then trying to make up a program,and not to mention listening to the same songs for about 4 weeks.......Mrs. Smith used to tell me that it was as hard for her if not harder being the teacher,and I used to wonder why. I now am just amazed that that she would organize 2 recitals with about 20 students in both. That is quite a feat.
In the end though listening to the kids play,and seeing the rewards of their practicing and hard work, it is worth it.......

So much to do...not much time to do it in........

I have about 6-8 weeks to get this horse ready for a show. Moses is for sale and hopefully somebody at the horse show will want to buy him. I was asked to get him ready and he has not been ridden since fall of 05. He is also just 4-5 yrs old so he doesn't know very much. I'm not really looking forward to those first couple of rides. It will be a good challenge.........and if any one knows someone who is looking for a horse.......

Green Eggs and Potatoes?????????

Yes, I made green eggs today. I actually had two people order green eggs,which were really nasty looking if you ask me. But you have to make people happy........and they were..........

HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY!

Spring in Vermont!!!!!

Today my Mom and us girls went to a flower show with my Grandma and Moms two sisters. Every year we make the trip to the flower show in Essex,and just spend the day together.
Anyways, they turned about half of the building into a garden complete with a stream,cabin,bridges and many other neat things. The best part is when you walk into the building and all you can smell is flowers.
I love this fence...........and the color of the azalea

Spring is just around the corner!!!!!!!!
