Once upon a time I was asked to perform a musical number of any sort for an enrichment activity for Relief Society. I asked my mom what I should do and she said of course I should do a trombone piece because I hardly ever get the chance to perform it in front of others and that it'd be a different, and fun, and educational. I agreed, but said that I'd only want to play it if I had someone to accompany me as I played one of my old solos but that I didn't have anyone that could - and that's when my mom proved again how awesome she is. She said she'd drive up to play for me! Hooray!! She drove 4 hours both ways to accompany me. She's the best.
The solo went alright - I haven't performed in front of others in 5 years and my practicing over those years have not been consistent, to say the least. But, others seemed to really enjoy it and it was fun to play again.
Mom arrived Monday night, played all day Tuesday with us, performed with me Tuesday night, and headed back Wednesday morning. It was a short trip, but wonderful, all the same. We went to the arboretum together so soak in all the wonderful flowers....none of which I actually got pictures of :)
And torchys tacos for lunch because it's delicious, that's why.
