A Little Bit of Everything

Since Easter, we have enjoyed several things here and there!
The Show Choir that I direct competed in Atlanta, Georgia.  We toured the CNN Center and the Coca-Cola Factory.  After we competed, we enjoyed Six Flags.  I was honestly really nervous about this trip.  It was one of those defining "I'm a big kid now" moments.  They seem to be happening more and more these days.  I suppose that's appropriate.  The choir did a phenomenal job!  I was so proud of them!

 They moved me to tears with their voices.  They were so excited after they sang their songs.  They all ran backstage and started hugging each other and high fiving.  I LOVED this moment.  It was special.  It was then that I felt as if I had successfully accomplished my goals for them this year.  And we did!  We won 3rd place with an Excellent rating.

This was a huge accomplishment for us!  I can't say enough how proud I am of them!  They are so adorable!  We will be celebrating our first year together in a cook out at our home very soon!  We can't wait to give them a special celebration for their achievements!
Also on the calendar was John's cousin, Beth's wedding.  Her parents had purchased a home over 5 years ago.  In fact, the first time I met all of them was at this house on their first day of renovating it.  They have worked so hard on this house and have finally completed it to an amazing home!  Beth's wedding took place at their home in their front yard.  (The Maholland boys are too handsome!)

It was a very beautiful wedding. It was very shabby chic!

Congrats Beth and Seth!
Just when we thought April was when we would be the busiest, our calendar piled full of events in May.  I can't believe the amount of things we are going to get to do in the following days and weeks!  Look out for a lot of posts and a lot of exciting things!!
