St. Patricks Day Concert 2009

oh, my God. The concert was amazing!!! We finally got put on the stage this year, since they extended it. There's nothing like having twenty dancers pounding on a wooden floor with their extra-muscular legs and stomp shoes. It felt like an earthquake.

The Galloway Ramblers (the kid ceilidh-or group if you will) played some featured pieces. I think we did pretty good. If I can get a hold of one, I'll try to post a pic up here of us. My "twin" Sarah, talked me into dying my bangs green. It was pretty cool, but the hairspray stunk like.....stinky stuff. LOL If you had to sit next to me, and your'e reading this....I'm very sorry.
My fiddle teacher and our fearless leader, brought Shamrock headband bobbers and big green hats. My friend Corey (who also plays fiddle) put two pairs of bobbers and a hat on me.
Me: "Now I look like a demented blond!- oh...wait..."


Here are the dancers (look demonic don't they? lOL) These are from a few yrs ago BTW.

And this is the band (also from last year). you can see me right here /
I'm the blond in green who isn't playing because that was my first
year playing fiddle.

Any way, I'll try to find some pics from this Yr.
Happy St. Patricks Day!!!!!

She died with her boots on.....not to mention her apron....

Sorry I haven't alot lately, St. Patrick's Day is almost here and Irish musicians are on demand. LOL


In other news in my life (wait! don't run!!:), my great-grandmother passed away last week.

She was born on Sept. 22, 1924 and died Monday before last. 84 years, impressive. Mary Lois "Mother" Rennegar retired from Harmony Elementary after 17 1/2 years of service in the cafeteria. She enjoyed crocheting, quilting and just like a teenage girl, talking on the phone. :)

Like many funerals in our family, it ends as a family reunion, with coffee, donuts, and monkey bread...wait- what?!
I hate monkeys.

Oddly, she passed while baking a pie. An apple pie. A really EVIL apple pie.

My family was joking around, saying Daddy Ramond (my great grandfather) had a 13 year long peaceful nap, now it's time to wake up. Ha ha!
I don't think I'm really that sad, I'm happy for her that she's in Heavan with him.

Happy St. Paddy's Day.
