Josh is never far from his guitar! He is really good at the electric guitar and acoustic guitar. It is fun to listen to him and he composes the coolest songs! He is also learning the stand up bass in his orchestra class at school!

So, I really like to add pictures with my posts but I'm having a little trouble transferring some recent pics to my computer, so here is the scoop and I'll add the pictures later. Friday night was a fun evening. Josh and his friend, Trey, had auditioned for and were chosen to be the opening act for Trace Bundy. Trace is from Colorado and is the most amazing guitarist I have ever seen. Anyway, Josh and Trey performed three songs. Two of them Trey wrote and one was a cover song. Trey played acoustic guitar and the two of them sang. It was awesome!!! They sounded so great!!! Then Trace performed...he is amazing! My parents just got back from Branson and said Trace was much better than the act they watched there, who of course was excellent. Go to youtube.com and type in Trace Bundy 5 Capos or since it's almost Christmas, type in Carol of the Bells instead of 5 Capos. These are songs he played Friday evening and you just have to watch his fingers. Wow!
The rest of our life is still football...Ryan won't be done until after Thanksgiving... and getting ready for the holidays. I've actually been able to get quite a bit of my Christmas shopping done. Jake is enjoying having his evenings free since football is over with for him, but that will end in a couple of weeks when basketball starts.
Bring on the holidays!!! The most wonderful time of the year!!!!
This is a terrible picture from my camera on my phone, but you can kind of see the snow and where the coaches had to shovel the snow for the kids to practice. This was Wednesday night and it was 32 degrees. Ryan has to keep practicing for his tournament in Las Vegas. CRAZY!!!
Ben took these pictures. I love the one of the clouds coming over Kennecott. This other picture is one of our Trinity Pear trees. The colors are just so beautiful right now.
