Christmas in Swansea

WE had an early start to our Winter Break because there was a water main break. All schools in Montgomery County got out two and a half hours late. I was sad, though, because we (Josh and I) didn't get to perform our marching band tour at Megan's elementary school. We were all very excited to go to Uncle Joe's in Swansea near St Louis on Christmas Eve. We woke up at 6 am, and left at 7 am. We drove all the way to Joe's house with two or three breaks for brunch, and linner. When we finally got to his house around 8pm, we all enjoyed a meal of Neoguri and Shin noodles. Uncle Tim's family arrived not long after, and we all met Cousin Ashley for the first time (except for Jessica and Uncle Joe)! On Christmas day, we all woke up and ate cereal together. We played the Wii and watched many movies. At around 4 or 5, Tsui Fang came and we all had a nice Boston Market dinner prepared by Aunt Joyce and Mom. After dinner, we gathered around the Christmas tree, set up by Joshua...

St Cecilia concerts

Last weekend, Josh and I went to the ASCYO (Academy of Saint Cecilia Youth Orchestra) concerts to perform. We performed at Asbury Methodist Village, Damascus High School, and Clarksburg High School. Here is an excerpt from The Nutcracker that we played: The Dance of the Mirlitons. We had a lot of fun doing these concerts, and we can't wait to do them next semester.
