Oboe Concert

Caitlyn has been taking oboe lessons through BYU partnership with the arts.  Tonight they had their Spring recital.  Caitlyn has a love/hate relationship with the oboe.  She loves to play for fun, but she hates to practice.  It is a tough instrument.  She has decided not to play the oboe next year so she has kind of checked out and debated about playing in the concert tonight.  She finally decided that the only reason she didn't want to play was because she was scared, so she decided to play in the concert.  I'm proud of her for choosing to play even though it was scary. 
Grandma came down early and took Caitlyn out to dinner.  Caitlyn was so excited.  She loves every chance she gets to spend time with grandma.
I met them at the school.  We were there early so she had some time to practice.  She sure is a beauty!
Jonah had a soccer game and Wyatt had soccer practice. Tiff took Wyatt to practice and Keith went to Jonah's game.  Hallee came with me and we made it a girls night!  She wanted to be in the picture with Caitlyn!  You can see how excited Caitlyn was about all of the pictures.
Caitlyn did amazing.  She sounded great.
She was happy with her performance.  I'm glad it was such a good experience for her.  It's always good to do hard things! 
It was fun to have Mel and her girls there too. We are a good looking group!
After the concert we all went to Yogurt Land. 
It was a fun evening.

That’s awesome she chose to do the concert when it was scary! She’s growing up so nicely.
