Greater Washington Suzuki Piano Institute Day 3

We made it on time today.  What joy!  Some times it is the small things in life that make you feel like you have your act together.

The photo is of Mary working on her t-shirt design for the contest.  Tomorrow the kids vote for next year's t-shirt design.  I am also a bad parent because I forgot to order this year's t-shirts.  Somewhere between accepting the teaching gig in CO and packing for MT it slipped my mind.  Big tears.  Sorry Mary.  Of course like most families--we're lacking event participation t-shirts at home.  (Please note sarcasm--we have drawers of t-shirts from myriad activities)  Nonetheless.

Today was a pretty uneventful day.  Bill has been pretty busy this week.  He is here, but it turned out to be an impossible week for him to completely take off from work.  I saw him on a conference call wondering around on the sidewalk next to the church--computer in hand--where he could still get wi/fi from the church office because the do-hicky that gives his net book web service is busted.  Mary was inside doing her Dalcroze class.  Tra la la.  Or fa fa sol as the case may be.

We did the mandatory swim in the hotel pool.  Life at institute would hardly be worth living if it wasn't for the hotel pool.  And fighting over who gets to do the key card.

The quote of the day was from Mary, "Mama--you know--it isn't the LAW that we have to stay in the practice room and practice the whole time."

Casey, you are a lawyer, can you help me out here??
It is true, there are no Suzuki police to come and get us.

Keep wiggling those teeth Mary, they are coming out any day now.
