Greetings,
As we make our final preparations for Christmas, which is just a few days away, I stop to reflect on the things from last week that stood out.
1) Campbell is a violinist - Campbell just started playing the violin in August. We found an instructor,
Casey Mink, that is new to the area and he teaches using the
suzuki method. Campbell attended his violin camp over the summer (just might be a bonus picture of the week) and she loved it. Campbell's always been interested in the violin. Anyway, her first recital was this past week. Here are a few pictures and video from the event:

Here are links to her two songs:
Solo &
Group
2) My Little Street Performer - Prior to the performance, Campbell has been too embarrassed to play her violin for anyone. After the performance, well that's a different story. Her recital was a confidence boost for her. After the recital, her Nana and Pop took us out to dinner to this little restaurant with just a few customers. The waitress asked her if she'd play. She agreed. She played her song for everyone. After that, she said, "I want to play outside so everyone can hear me." So we took her outside . . . then we might have posed her for a picture.
3) The weekly adventures of Tinker Bell:
4) 'Tis the Season - It's that time of the year that I begin making cookies for everyone. This year's total came to 240 cookies.

5) It's been 10 wonderful years of marriage to my beautiful wife Martha. We celebrated this milestone with a weekend trip to Charleston.
