Last night we went to a piano recital for John. He did great! We were in the car about to leave and I asked him if he had his music and he said he didn't need it because he had it memorized. For my piece of mind I made him bring it anyway, but sure enough he didn't need it. He played, March of the Clones by Bober I think. We are so impressed with his motivation to practice 40 minutes each day, he only occasionally needs some encouragement to get his practicing time in. He's come a long way and he is really playing well. What makes it really great is that he really seems to enjoy it. Grandma Gunnerson (Grandpa Gunnerson wasn't feeling well) and Grandpa Bishop (Grandma Bishop was visiting teaching) both came. It was nice to have them there. Last night was the opening football game for the BSU Broncos so anyone we had there was just a bonus. Mark was a trooper and was happy to go, he just brought the little T.V. in the van to watch on the way there and on the way home and offerred to take Seth out to the van during the recital if he got restless (we all know what he would have done in the van). Unfortunately for Mark, Seth did just fine and didn't need to be taken out. We got home during halftime though, so all was well. John, we love you and are proud of you and your talents! Keep it up!

Wow, that's great to hear about John's recital. Wish we could have been there (would have gladly skipped the BSU game for you, John! ha!) Keep up the good work, John, and by the time we're back next summer, you'll probably be able to teach me a thing or two about piano! We're very proud of you, John.
Love, Aunt Kamber and Uncle Brian
