Middle School choirs sounded good. This is a relief, because we have a new middle school choir director this year, and she is a Spanish teacher (I know, that’s what I thought too). But not to worry, she’s as good as a normal teacher when it comes to directing a middle school choir (recorded on my phone, so the quality isn’t very good):

• 6th grade choir singing some song
• 7th and 8th grade choir singing some song

Next up was the Middle School band. Mr. Wilhelm is the best middle school band director that I have ever heard. I base my opinion on the fact that I have never winced or cringed while his middle school bands were playing:

• 8th grade band playing some song

Okay, let me be completely honest. I’ve never winced or cringed until they played this:

• 8th grade band playing some Cannon in D

But then I thought of this, and everything was okay again:

• More Cannon in D (I wrote this post just so I could link to this)

The high school choir sang a bit too:

• High School choir singing some song
• High School choir singing another song

Then the high school band played, but I don’t really appreciate high school band, so I mostly tuned them out. Sorry band. I just don’t get you.

There he goes.  Off to sing his little heart out with Brad & Beth’s mom and Stephannie’s brother.  (Yes, his tuxedo is all in the suit bag.) The Lincoln Lutheran Choir had their first concert of the weekend in Council Bluffs, Iowa tonight, and it was wonderful!  They sang Thanksgiving-type songs, and sang all of them well.  They’ll sing again tomorrow in Lincoln, and I’ll tell you which  night was better.

The church they were in was a building straight out of one of my dreams.  It had tiny little rooms, winding maze-like hallways that led to even more tiny rooms, amazing architecture, and several kitchens.  My heart started beating faster when we came across this one off a hallway:

It’s one of those all-in-one deals, with cabinets, a light, a stove, sink and that door on the far right is an under-counter fridge!!  I’ve looked at these before in used furniture stores, and someday I’ll have one in my tiny little dream house.  *sigh* I’ve never been happier.
