MILLER'S EARLY THANKSGIVING
We were able to go to Jeff and Shaura's house for Early Thanksgiving. I simply love this tradition. I love that we can spend time with both sets of families around the Thanksgiving Holiday. I hope this tradition continues for as long as I am alive. It is such a blessing to be with family!
This year for Early Thanksgiving, the girl's and I had a previous obligation. It seemed a bit crazy to drive down to Rupert for such a short period of time; however, we decided that time spent with family would be make the effort worth it. The girls and I missed the actual dinner, but we were able to enjoy an evening and a morning with the family before heading back to Boise. Bryan and Jacob caught a ride back to Boise with Dan and Danny (so grateful to them).

MONSTER CONCERT
If the Monster Concert was any other concert, we would have simply missed it; however, both Hailey and Amber had partners that were depending on them to perform. If Hailey and Amber hadn't shown up, it would have left their partners in a lurch. I was somewhat sad to leave Early Thanksgiving, but because it was important to live up to our commitments--we did so.
The concert was beautifully done, and the girls did a great job. Both Hailey and Amber earned a spot on a Grand Piano, which was truly exciting for the both of them. Prior to the actual concert, they perform for the conductor, and the best pianists are placed on a grand piano. For the Monster Concert, there are 20 pianist following a conductor. It is amazing to hear so many pianos playing in unison.
