Big Day!

Kara and Ben started piano lessons in late June and today they had their first recital!  With Halloween just around the corner, it was a Halloween themed event.

Both of the kids played a solo piece, a duet with their teacher and then they played a song together. 

Though they both said they were nervous, they did very well.  

Before the piano recital, the kids had soccer games and Ben scored his first goal!

And since you can't have only two kids leave the house in costume, we woke Jason from his nap to get ready to go to the recital and the only thing that held off the tears and whining was the promise that he could be Thor.

Between soccer and piano, we spent a little time at the Academy house putting furniture together because now that the paint has dried... it's time to move!
