My christmas card to you…
My christmas card to you…
Many years ago, I auditioned for a part in a musical at BYU where I was going to school. I picked as my audition piece, a song called, “Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man” from the musical “Showboat”. I had never […]
So with my new found freedom, I discovered a whole new way to find time for doing music more… play first, and work later! It’s not usually the way I work, but for this one week, I’ve done it that […]
Last week my son got to sing a solo for a Middle school choir ensemble. I got to accompany him at the piano. He had a great time. He’s a lot like me, he got really nervous just before he […]
For my son’s 14th birthday, I gave my son a guitar song book and some CD’s to help him learn how to play his guitar. For fun, I learned right along with him. I had only learned previously how to […]
I actually can’t remember the first date I went on. I do remember the first date that my husband and I went on though. We went to go see “101 dalmations” (the animated version!). It was playing at BYU where we were both going to college at the time. Afterwards, we went up Provo Canyon and roasted s’mores and sang around a campfire. It was a lot of fun. Today my daughter is out on her first date….

In church, last Sunday, I was released from my calling as the Primary Children’s piano accompanist, and was instead given the assignment to play piano in Relief Society (our Women’s organization)! It was a surprise to me to be released […]
On Sunday, in Primary, the kids sang through my new song, “Because I Love Him Too”. I had to race a little to get it finished in time, but they were able to sing it. The song is about all […]
I had a wonderful summer. I really enjoyed time with the kids, and made it a point really to NOT work on anything musical. Now with school starting, I’m finding musical thoughts coming in again. I’m excited to start composing again.
Last week, in Primary…
This last week, I had the opportunity (a second time!) to visit the Relief Society building and sing for members of a General Women’s presidency…
So yesterday we went looking at a new house. It was a lot bigger house (an extra 1100 square feet!) with an immaculate beautiful .48 acre lot. I was excited to look at it because it had 8 bedrooms plus […]
