Apology

I realize that I may be the worst blogger in the world, but frankly, I don't really care!  There would be too many things to catch-up on, so I will not attempt.  Here is how the family stands now...
The Composer:
Has not been doing much composing lately, he is busily writing his own school orchestra curriculum.  What spare time he has he spends teaching private violin/viola lessons and scouting.  The family gets any leftover time (which isn't much), but we relish every minute of it.
The Cellist:
Is still plugging away at the cello.  He is now 13 and the principle cellist in his school orchestra (which isn't really hard because, lets face it, it's middle school orchestra).  He just went down to UVU for an all day cello competition--his first--and did very well.  He is very into science and, of course, is in all honors classes.  Perhaps I shouldn't say of course, it has been a very long road to get him excelling at school, but so worth the work!
The Pianist:
Is still a pianist (although her little sister could give her a run for her tittle).  She has also recently taken an interest in the violin and the ukulele.  She is now 10 and in our favorite grade, 5th.  She recently had a very bad run in with a tree and has some facial scaring we are working on. (poor thing)
The Musician:
Well I don't know if the Musician is quite the right tittle for her now.  She does take piano, along with her sister, but she is also involved in Ballet and Tumbling.  Tumbling would probably be her favorite.  She is now 8, and in 3rd grade.
The Vocalist:
Me, well--I'm busy.  I started a preschool this year!  I'm having a really great time, I have the cutest group of little girls.  I'm also busy running around after a one-year-old, because, if you didn't know, we have added a new member to our family band!
She is the sweetest thing, so curious and into everything at this moment.  Today she ate some chalk and a tiny bit of dishwasher detergent.  I'm thinking she is not going to sleep well tonight.  We have been having so much fun with our new little addition, the children just adore her and are the best babysitters!  I really mean that.
