Brian's Birthday!

Today November 13, 2008 is a great day for us to think about. It has been four months since the passing of our beloved brother/brother in-law, and uncle. We just wanted to reflect on what would have been his 34th birthday. Brian, this goes out to you, "Happy Birthday". Brian was such a tease always giving the bunny ears. This day is also a day that our niece Brittney shared with Brian. They have the same birthday! Happy "Sweet 16" to you Brittney!!

Concert

Okay so Austin had to go to a concert within a certain time frame for his music class. So we went to the Jon Schmidt concert. He is a classical performer/entertainer. At first when we were trying to decide if we should go to this I was excited and so was Austin. Jason on the other hand wasn't so convinced that he really wanted to go. He thought it sounded so boring. I finally talked him into it and he was glad. This guy is sooo Goood. He totally rocked!!! He had two different opening performances from other groups and they were so awesome too!!! One was his 16 year old sons alternative rock band that performed for the first time that night (saturday) they have their first album coming out in spring "09" I would buy it. The other performer was Jake White. He plays the guitar and sings too. This guy is way good! He had one guitar that had two necks on it. If you've ever watched the movie "August Rush", he plays like the kid did in that movie. So, So good!!! Then came Jon Schmidt. He has a great sense of humor and makes his piano playing fun for everyone. One song he played while laying on his back on the piano bench and crossing his arms, another song he took off one of his shoes and played with his toes with his socks on!!! He was funny and very ENTERTAINING !! All of them were GREAT !! We had a really good time and enjoyed the whole night!!! We will definitley go to his concert again!!!! We only have a few pictures, and they aren't very good ones, because our batteries in the camera were dying.
