Finn started recorder lessons at the beginning of January and Sunday afternoon he had his first recital. I nearly died from the cuteness of him getting all dressed up. We had searched for shoes the day before and he was very patient in finding the ones that were just right. Then we picked out a new shirt with a tie. He got some help getting dressed from Bruce.
Here he is just before we headed out.
After about a half-hour of waiting patiently, it was his turn. He went on with his teacher, Melissa, and Sami, the other boy who takes lessons with him.
The program said Finn was going second, so I wasn’t quite ready to start rolling when he actually went first. His solo is Hot Cross Buns.
Next he did a duet of Merrily with Sami.
After the show, Finn and Sami hung out for a few minutes and we took some pictures.
And then we went across the street to El Patron for a celebratory dinner. With Legos.
Congratulations, Finn, on your first recital. We are so proud of you!
