Otto Laughing

It never gets old for me...

Whispering Beard Music Festival

We went to the Whispering Beard Music Festival the last two days. It was a great time. The venue is awesome and it has about 10 times the capacity as what attended, so they'll have plenty of room to grow, and I hope it does.

It was a great set of mostly regional bluegrass artists... Jake Speed, Comet Bluegrass All-Stars, The Hiders, etc, etc... all the usuals.

Here's a video of Mama, Greta and Otto dancing to one of our favorites... Jake Speed.

And sometimes no matter how good the music is, you have to take a break from dancing, and well..... put rocks in your shoes and dump them out... right?

Big Hugs

old home movies

i was looking back through the blog today to figure out when greta moved from her infant car seat to the convertible seat. greta joined me, as she likes to watch videos of herself and her other friends from their blogs. i found out that greta moved to her "big girl seat" in may, when she was 7 months old. but i also found this and this. greta was literally cracking up at the movies of herself as a baby, and i was laughing and crying at the same time. where did this pudgy, dark haired baby go? i am so thankful that we have these movies, and this blog to look back on.
