Music In Kansas!

There are a lot of talented musicians in Kansas and some of them our members of our family!
Sarah plays the clarinet in the school band...
...and she enjoys the ukulele.
She sings in the school choir and will be singing and dancing as a lioness in the "Lion King."
Elizabeth plays the flute in the 8th grade band.
We were able to attend a concert.  I took this photo to show the size of the school performing hall.  Wow, a lot different from the concerts our kids had in the school cafeteria!
Here's a close up of the band.  Elizabeth is on the end, 2nd row back.
A short video of her playing the flute!
Camille has started taking piano lessons:
All four of the Harrisons take piano lessons and Eleanor is in the top woman's choir at her school.  She is also taking private voice lessons.
Sam is in the high school Jazz Band playing the trombone:
We were able to hear a short concert as part of a music festival at a local college.
They were amazing!   Enjoy a short snippet:

Love at Valentine's!

Love my Valentine's Day trees with the now "vintage" Valentine's on them.
Even left some lights on our patio and added some hearts.  Loved it!
Love these and loved putting them around the house for Dan to find this past week!
 Love the cute Rice Krispie treats Hannah made as a camp fundraiser!
They are super yummy and were perfect to take to some friends today.
Loved the personal delivery!
Loved helping the Folsom 5th Ward with their Relief Society last night:
Loved preparing some surprises for it!
Loved my heart-shaped Quesadilla Dan made me for lunch!
Love this guy who is always doing things for me!
Loved thanking our next door neighbors for being such great neighbors!

 Loved the treat my Visiting Teacher brought me...
...and this thought that came with it!
All in all, it was a "love"ly day!
