Entry for May 25, 2008

We played at the dance last night, and I for one had a blast! I love being a part of the MadCow Band. The dance was a fundraiser for Amy Sabrinas' barn. She is restoring it as a community dance hall. We got a little bit of money, but best of all, we got to choose pottery or a handcarved wooden utensil. I got the mug in the pic, and Paul got a cool spoon! It was great to see everybody again, and we are planning a show at the Kanabec History Center in June. We will be learning some new songs. Tonight I will be jammng at our friend Dave's. The best part of the night was two of my fiddle kids played a song during a break. They did great, and I was proud of them because it was their first appearance at a dance of any kind. I am so grateful that the teaching opportunity came my way. The lessons are a highlight of my week, and I have students of all ages, kids to adults. I got home to orders from Etsy, and I will be busy packing today. We are running a studio sale today , and I should be down helping. Also on a massive cleaning mission for graduation this week. Argh. So I better run.....
