Yikes!

I thought it would be fun to post the top 5 box office movies at the bottom of my blog. I'm sorry to say that with the exception of HSM3 (depending on your perspective), these movies look absolutely horrible! I guess it is just as well that I only rarely go to the theater.

Speaking of cultural decline, our school's theme for the year is Beauty. There is much beauty available, but sometimes we need to look for it. We are trying to offer opportunities of beauty to our girls. We signed up the little ones for ballet; we give them piano lessons; we are asking Tori to participate in our church's new youth choir. They are OK with piano, but sadly our ballerinas aren't thrilled. Neither is our singer. It is so tempting to let them quit, but we are not going to. This is a gift they will one day appreciate. I think Tori is starting to catch the vision. We (the adult choir) sang Fuare's Requiem in honor of All Saints Day. The children's choir soloed in the Pie Jesu and In Paradisum. Simply beautiful!
