Sibling Performance Weekend

...but before going to see their shows, I learned to play 500; here's Katie, displaying our wonderful first hand (we won every trick!):


That night, Amanda slept over.  We had a great chat, but let this be a reminder to everyone of the risks involved in taking pictures on other people's phones:


(Love you, sis! [even if the feeling isn't currently reciprocated...] :))

Next morning, I attended a talk on art and environment in the liturgy at the Basilica, where they were also having an icon display:


(The miter [is that what it's called?] above is actually very sparkly!  The icon in the middle has Mary and the Burning Bush: two things that I never put together, and I'm still not sure exactly how they fit, but I'm sure there's some cool symbolism or something there.)

This one is from UST!


On Saturday night, Amanda, Daddy, and I went to Dinner Theatre.  This is the first time that I have just been in the audience, and after three (four?) years of performing in it, the sensation was rather strange!  However, Davey and Nathan were both in it and did a great job -- way to go, boys!

Today's performance was by the AR choirs, with Amanda singing in them.  They sounded great, especially on Bernstein's Chichester Psalms: a monster to learn, but they pulled it off spectacularly.  Great singing, Amanda -- way to be a well-rounded ballerina! :)
