Five Differences Between Christmas Concerts For Pace and The Elementary School-Aged Me

Pace had his first Christmas concert (actually “concerts” – see #5 below) today. That got me thinking about the ways they’ve changed since I was a kid. [Edit: Someone pointed out many of the differences are as much about rural vs. urban approaches as generational which is probably true.] First off, when I was a […]

Saturday Snap – Holiday Concert

Pace saw a YouTube video of the song he’s doing for his school Christmas holiday concert and decided he needed to jazz up his look too!
