Excellent

Speaking of excellent, Miguel watched the two littlest babes while I took the older two to the "Five Browns." They were absolutely fun and entertaining to watch. And VERY excellent. Made me want to start practicing the piano again! One of our favorite songs was the Danse Macabre-- it was amazing! It is a classical piece based on a poem written about skeletons dancing in the graveyard before dawn. Sooooo fun! They don't have it recorded anywhere, and their five-piano arrangement was by far the best. I'm going to post a video of someone else playing it. If you don't want to watch the whole thing, just watch the last two minutes. Again, not as good as the Five Browns, but amazing playing and amazing song nonetheless.

Because I'm a computer dummy, I'll just give you the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9rn-HQzGf8&feature=related

Chris and I saw them perform two years in San Diego. Such amazing talent.

How is the house search? Are you enjoying being in Utah?

I love those guys--Carbon Valley Library has a couple of their albums. How lucky for you to go see them.
