Amanda Sing's the Blues

Sorry, no major updating tonight.. no insight on life.. I'm too tired. So I'll just do a quick update to be a proud papa and share some family news. Tanner and I spent the evening up in Salem, watching Amanda's Jazz Choir concert (although, even after watching one, I am still a little fuzzy on what exactly a "Jazz" choir is, and how it differentiates for other choirs). For those of you who are new to keeping up with my family, thanks to this blog, Amanda is my 11 year old daughter.. the oldest of my bunch, and now attempting to survive the woes of middle school.

As I mentioned tonight she had a Jazz Choir concert and I must say she did a fantastic job! She has sung in public before for church events, but I don't think she has ever sung to a full gym sized audience. I could tell she was nervous.. wouldn't crack her normal biggie smile for awhile, but after successfully surviving her solo, she could finally relax. She was rewarded for a job well done with a trip out for ice cream.

I have posted a quick video of her solo. You can view it by clicking here. Note: This is a Quicktime video file. If you do not have Quicktime already, click here to download it. Sorry it's a bit shaky.. I have a new camera and am still getting used to where all the buttons are.

  1. Amanda got concerned that I didn't comment on this entry. I am commenting. Actually, I'm very proud of her and I can't wait to see the video of her performance. Let her know that when you go to Tyler's program tomorrow.
