Morgantown's Got Talent

We had our ward talent show tonight.  Brent was involved in the planning and preparation and so the rest of us prepared things to display at the show.  My piano students performed for their first audience.  I showed a couple paintings of mine and took along some other creative projects.  Elise, William and Allen displayed some paintings.  (See below).  The bummer of the night was Brent was sick all day today and unable to attend the show to see all his hard work pay off!  The turn out was incredible and Elise and I enjoyed our time at the show.  We heard Broadway, opera, orchestra, band, piano duets and solos, violin solos, guitar, a percussion band (the food storage band), a family of singers and many others.  Our time was certainly well spent!

William's Debut Painting

This is William's debut painting. We haven't titled it yet.  He and Allen really seemed to enjoy doing these.  I painted the canvas blue before they started and then helped them get the paint on the fan brush but they did the rest!  It was really fun to watch how they paint completely uninhibited.

Allen's Debut Painting

This is Allen's debut painting.  We haven't given it a title yet.  He actually sat on my lap while he painted but I was able to catch him with the brush in hand while I was up getting the white paint.

Rapunzel Series

These are Elise's paintings debuted at the ward talent show.  They are from her Rapunzel series of paintings.

Brave Halloween

We went for Halloween as the Brave family this year (minus a triplet).  My very talented mother made our costumes and we were the talk for the Halloween party in our ward.  It was really good we went that night because the storm trouble with the hurricane prevented us actually getting out on Halloween.  The pics are a bit grainy because the lighting wasn't ideal in the cultural hall but here they are anyway.
