The insane cold snap is now just a distant memory. The weather has been absolutely perfect! We have been outside and getting some things done. Basically, we're just enjoying the great weather. We know before too long that summer will be here and we'll have to deal with all the crazy hot weather.
We have not made it out to look at the house we're interested in seeing yet. D was super sick the week we were going to go see it and then the crazy cold snap came and we needed to stay close to the animals plus we didn't feel like getting out when it was that cold and windy. Now, training season has started for D and over the next couple of weeks, he will only have Sundays off. T and I will probably go drive by and look at the outside of the property to see if it's flat enough for what we want to do with it and if it is then D and I will make an appointment to go check it out. We're getting some projects done in the meantime that will help get the house ready to sell if we decide to go that route or if we decide to wait then we're getting projects done that we've needed to do. Either way it's a win!
T had his recital this week. Sanger maybe under an insane amount of construction and growth right now that is taking away our small town feel, but I never feel as backwoods country as I do than when the music school has its recital in a bar! All these little kids show up with their families to either play on the stage at the bar or watch their older siblings play. There were 37 kids that performed at this recital. It took almost 3 hours! The bar we played at last time had gone out of business (I can only imagine it was because of the lack of food. Noone wants a bag of chips and some candy on a night out!) and the new bar in town hosted us. This place was so great! The space was about 3x bigger plus they also had a pizzeria and ice cream parlor! They apparently didn't realize how many people this recital would bring and were VERY overwhelmed! Our pizza took over an hour to be made, but since T is the most advanced student and was closing the show out, we had plenty of time to wait. We may even go out to this place when there's not a recital. I really want to try the ice cream! The bar brews most of their own beers, which if we liked beer would be super cool, but they also have Artisan root beer. We are huge root beer connoisseurs and LOVED the root beer! It was super yummy! T finally took the stage around 8:30 pm and did great! He played lead guitar while one of the instructors played drums and his other instructor played back up guitar and sang. The song he played was Bon Jovi's You Give Love A Bad Name. The whole song was around 4 minutes, but this site only lets me upload one minute videos so I shortened it to just include the main solo he played.

| Somehow we managed to find a couple of seats at the bar directly in front of the stage. |
