So it was Christmas with the NY O'Brien's. The kids get to see each other less and less as they get older. Everyone is involved in multiple activities/sports/groups and trying to find one day is no easy task. So they played games, laughed, shot some hoops, ate and a great time together.
My youngest niece has just taken up the flute and was not sure she was liking it. Shannon, who is 8 years into the flute and now piccolo, was working on encouraging Emily to continue. Emily knew that cheesecake was on the dessert menu and I sorta twisted her arm that she had to serenade us before she could have cheesecake (yeah, I know)....but she pulled off the first measure of "Puppy Dogs" (after a lot of giggle and coaxing). Please note the great flute angle. Shannon was proud as bad flute angles make her nuts!
If music be the food of love, play on!
