Inspiration and Imagination

On Wednesday, May 13 we went to the Phoenix Symphony with a home school group. They do a concert series called Symphony for the schools, this one was 'poetry, paint and dance' children listened to the music and had it inspire their imagination. It was really nice and perfectly timed, only about an hour, so by the time Reilly was saying 'is it almost over' we were on the last song. They played music like 'Ride of the Valkyries',and 'Fight of the Bumblebees' along with several others. You get the idea, most of the songs were very upbeat. Reilly and I really enjoyed it.

Reilly said this favorite part of the Symphony was the one where the students on stage danced 'like vampires', I think the music was 'Dance of the Furies' or 'Danes of Transylvania".

I can't remember which.

I think this was really ironic,

I though this is great, only $3 for the tickets, great deal! Then I had to spend $12 for parking.

so sad I forgot to take a camera

Archery Saturday, 9 May, 2009

Reilly went to a free archery class through the Town of Buckeye last Saturday.

It was really HOT, but he had a great time.

He was so excited at the end of class they got to shoot balloons

and he was one of three kids to pop a balloon with his arrow.

The boy's got Talent.

This picture is at the end of class right before he popped the balloon.

This was at the beginning of class, the instructor went around to each student to help with form and stance, ect...

Below is the target with Reilly's arrow in it
