New Adventures

Life seems to be flying by at the speed of light these days. If your family is anything like ours, you probably feel the same way! Kids growing into young adults, adding boyfriends, jobs, obligations, new adventures... it's all part of the blessing!

Musically, we have had several new opportunities and new adventures this past year! This girls' new band, Emalyne, (which also includes their brother Trey on the bass) has played several shows and recently had the opportunity to be featured on a local cable TV channel. We're excited for them as they grow and blossom as artists.

Russ has also had some great new opportunities, debuting new compositions and arrangements at our church, Madison Park Church of God. May 3 was an especially rewarding day for him, as our entire family participated in the performance of his original song, "Spirit, Speak for Me," along with the Madison Park Bell Choir.

As usual, the Christmas season is a busy one for a family of musicians with plenty of concerts, parties and church performances. We are blessed and thankful to be together once again as a family, doing what we love.



Here's a little clip of Emma, Russ and Trey rehearsing before a performance in the historic Paramount Theatre ballroom. Hope you enjoy Russ' jazzy rendition of "Go Tell It on the Mountain." Merry Christmas and blessings to you all during this most wonderful time of the year!
