This is what is known as "concert week" at Ashley's school. Since this is a school which focuses on music and academics, you can imagine this is a very long week. Lots of performances, lots of groups, and most kids are in two or three different groups.

Ashley had performances Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and then a special fund-raising dinner performance Saturday night. In the middle of this tiring week, they were at a location at 6:am this morning for a local news cast showing off the talents of these kids. They performed off and on for 2 hours and then went back to school for State testing. Very fun...very tiring.

These kids are talented and confident and happy. I sit back and wonder, "what more could you ask for?"

At the same time, this weekend is the "Tattoo Expo". Tattoo artists from all over the world will be here. Did you know there was such a thing? Lex, who sells custom motorcycles, will be involved in this and it will take him away for most of Friday night and Saturday/Saturday night.

Avery is working all day Saturday...

It looks like everybody has something to do except me.

I'm hoping to keep it that way!
