super Saturday

Yesterday, A woke up early and traveled to New Richmond for a music festival where he joined other musicians in our area who happen to be 8th graders and performed four wonderful songs.

After he left for his practice, K woke up and we realized she hadn't enjoyed her birthday breakfast yet:

birthday cake from her birthday--A adding "music"

helping sister with her candles

breakfast in bed--bacon, Life and hot chocolate

After doing some work on K's room, we loaded up and headed to New Richmond and their beautiful auditorium for A's concert:

Then we traveled north to visit Bud after his knee replacement surgery on Monday. He looked great! We got to see Ibby and her children, Betty and Bud, Pumpkin and dined on yummy pizza.

We drove home last night and I finished prepping the wall for painting today.
