NEWS FLASH: We got the results in from Chips' state music competitions. We are still waiting to hear about Sweet Girl's competition.
We are thrilled to report that Chips' won in two events. He was the sole winner of the Violin Solo Medium I competition, and he and his buddies were the winners of the Chamber Piano Trio competition. He/they had competed against students who are as much as 5 years older than themselves. We are all so thrilled. This day was long in coming, and we rejoice!
Sweet Girl also did very well in her Violin Solo but we are still waiting to hear the results of her contest.
To say we are happy, gratified, encouraged, and thankful is the understatement of the year. It is such a sweet blessing to have won these trophies, especially the solo trophy, since it has eluded Chips for so long.
Here are some photos from this weekend...

Proud Moms and their young musicians.
The smile, and beaming face, say it all!

Congratulations to you all!
Congratulations! That must be a lovely feeling to savour after all that hard work and hoping for success. Will you have any clips of the performances to post? I bet your children are still on cloud nine. (to say nothing of you!)
Think of us tomorrow as we go through the same thing!
