Performing


Well, we have had a busy week, as you can tell from my lack of blog posts. My sister called and was worried about us because I hadn't posted anything in awhile. We are fine but have had a full week. Chris and I had a fun lunch date Monday- we went to see Prince Caspian at a nearby theater. This was our first movie we had seen in a theater since moving here. Tuesday Austin and I went to visit our friends Emily and Sydney (from playgroup). They live about an hour north of the city. Austin liked the bus ride, playing with Sydney's toys and the park behind their apartment complex. I will have to get pictures from Emily later- she got some fun ones.

Yesterday Chris (with the help of two friends) gave a lecture/performance at a music conservatory on American folk music. He played a range of songs on mostly mandolin and a few on guitar, ranging from 18th century folk music to modern day (like Nickel Creek) and ended with some of his own original music. He performed very well and had a warm reception by the students. Here are some pictures and video of it.
