The A & E Spring Recital

The recital went on as planned on Friday evening, 
even though the girls 
weren't able to announce the REAL reason for it.
They had wanted it to be a farewell party. 
Elley painted a picture of the two of them
to display. (It looks a little different in real life)
 We held it at the church's cultural hall because 
we thought there might 
be too many for our home, and there were.
The only problem was--summer humidity moved in last week, 
and EVERY piano in the building was out of tune.  
The show went on although the piano accompaniment 
sounded a bit like it should have been in a honky-tonk saloon.
Alice's piano teacher had graciously
offered to accompany them.  She has really been a great teacher.
There were ward members and school friends.
It was brief (about a half-hour), enjoyable, and then people stayed 
another 45 minutes having 
refreshments--root beer floats--and chatting.
It was a success!
