I'm on YouTube!

I played with the Triangle Wind Ensemble a couple weeks ago, and we played a great Tympani Concerto called "Raise the Roof." Lots of fun. Check it out:

If you don't have time to watch the whole thing, watch the amazing tympani solo at the beginning, then skip to 3:08...that's my first solo. The next time you can actually hear me on the recording is at 4:23, even though I'm playing most of the time.

Girl Tigger

I wanted to dress Laralyn up as a pixie for Halloween because, well, she has the face for it. I was horribly unsuccessful at finding said pixie costume (only partly for the lack of trying). It seems that all infants are meant to be pumpkins or some sort of animal for Halloween. A friend of ours said she had an extra tigger costume her son had grown out of, so we borrowed it for our Halloween festivities this year. A quick bow of pink ribbon, and viola! We have Tigger's twin sister...or Tonia the Tiger...or Lady Tigress...whichever fits your fancy.
