Violin Christmas program

The Christmas season is such a special time of year! Often it's easy to get caught up all of the holiday rush, but when we slow down and think of the reason for Christmas, we find the true reason for our joy. It's been a lot of fun spreading that joy to others with our violin music! Kathy, our teacher, spent a lot of time with all of her students in getting us ready for the programs we do each year at the nursing homes in Aurora. She does an excellent job in finding neat arrangements of Christmas carols for us to play! We are so blessed to have her for a teacher! Here are a few pictures of the main program we did.

This was a really fun song in which some of us played & plucked the strings,

 and tapped & knocked on our violins! It was a version of Pat-a-Pan.

And, once again, Mitchell and I found that we were wearing the same colors! :-D

Believe it or not, it wasn't on purpose!
