Eight Days A Week, we pracitce Down On The Corner

Everyone that performed...
Preston playing Let It Be.
At the end of Down On The Corner
Eight Days A Week...
Louder Than Words (less a drummer)

HI! So last night's performance went awesomely! Despite missing a few words and my guitar's volume being WAY down at the beginning, it went really well and was a breath of fresh air after some amature performances (that will get better with practice). Preston also playes Let It Be by The Beatles as a solo performance. Darren played drums really well for us (with his awesomly weird hat on) and we sounded great! I might be able to get some videos up on facebook...we'll see...anyways...

Bri has a baseball tournament this weekend so I probably won't be home for most of it.

Thank you to Gram for sending me lots of gummies (which have fueled me this week) and the two awesome tshirts :)


Anyways, I've got to go now, but I'll write more soon!

Howdy all

Hi...so I'm officially done school, which is FLIPPIN' SWEET! I did one grade 10 exam and that was it! :D Tomorrow is the Blue Water Music recital which should be AWESOME! Darby, Preston and I are playing Down On The Corner and Eight Days A Week. We're goin' for the classics this time. We sound pretty good on both songs (better with a drummer which we didn't have for most of our practices) and it should be really fun!
The new Lifehouse CD was released on Tuesday and I don't have it yet. That is really quite tragic. So sad. I need to get to CD Plus because Zellers decided not to have it. Gr.
Okay, so I'm gonna go play Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 now. I guess I'll write more soon and stuff :)

Lake?

Kyle at the beach!
Me freezing cold...
My mom and Bri
The marina with its new docks...

Hi...okay so it's pretty flippin' hot here now. We've gone down to the lake a few times just to get cooler. Not that you can actually swim though. You might lose a leg or two from the bitter coldness.

Here are some pics of us at le beach "enjoying" the icy cold water.



Last night, my mom and I went to a play in Salmon Arm that Travis's school put on. It was REALLY good! They did a non-musical version of Les Miserables and it was awesome. Travis played the character called Marius and he was really good! And Brendan Osborne was in it too playing the main character, John Valjon (spelling?). It was really cool! The did sooo well and they had awesome costumes and everyone did really well! so that was cool :) woo hoo!
