Katie's Got Talent

Last night Katie perfomed in the Edgar County Fair Talent Show. In my totally unbiased opinion, she played brilliantly!





Here she is before the show, looking much too beautiful for any fourteen year old to look.

Congratulations Katie! You made us so proud!



Here is her perfomance. For some reason, I couldn't get the video I took to upload directly to my blog, so for now you'll need to click the link to watch it. Be warned: The video is very shaky. I was a nervous wreck and my hands were trembling. Hope you don't get motion sickness watching it.

For Mother's Day, Dan baught "me" some chairs, a small table, and a fire pit. We have enjoyed some of these cool evenings outside cooking hot dogs and making s'mores.





Mackenzie likes her marshmallows well done!
