Musical Mama and The Green Thumb: Toddler Years
http://www.musicalmamagreenthumb.com/2013/08/toddler-years.html
Thursday, August 22, 2013. I keep reading all of these things about the toddler years and how they fly by or how toddlers need one thing or another. Well I agree with the first bit. This time in Grant's life seems to be flying by. This post is solely about him so be prepared for pics and me oozing my love for him all over the rest of the page . This kid LOVES slides and can pretty much go down them all by himself. When did that happen? He's sweet with other kids and generally avoids conflict, with other ...

Monday, April 1, 2013. Hop, Hop, Hop. Our Easter festivities this year were quite excellent. We ended up with two Easter hunts with very different outcomes. Our families do things quite differently and I'm glad we get to do both .If you are curious about how we do things particularly on the Gurney side take a look at last year's post here. Now that you have been briefed, why don't we take a look at what blood was spilt this year. Just kidding. Here are the pics for reals though. The race for the candy wa...

Musical Mama and The Green Thumb: February 2013
http://www.musicalmamagreenthumb.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 13, 2013. How to Get Your Kids To Practice Without Pulling Your Hair Out. I am not a parenting expert. Not in this or any galaxy would someone claim me to being the queen of all parents, but I do know a thing or two about teaching. After 12 years of teaching privately and in public school situations, I have learned a few things. One of the main questions I hear time and time again is how to keep kids motivated while learning to play an instrument. Set a general time and be flexible.

Musical Mama and The Green Thumb: Devil Went Down To Georgia
http://www.musicalmamagreenthumb.com/2013/08/devil-went-down-to-georgia.html
Tuesday, August 27, 2013. Devil Went Down To Georgia. Just had a fiddle recital in the park with my students. I decided to have the last number be Devil Went Down to Georgia because I know it is a crowd pleaser. Why do I know this? Pretty much every concert or wedding I have ever played for, some old man will walk up to me and ask if I can play the above mentioned song. They say this like if I can play it, I will be a true musician. Ha! August 28, 2013 at 11:05 AM. Ok that was pretty much AWESOME!

Monday, July 22, 2013. I've asked one of my favorite people to do a playlist for all y'all today. Miss Claire Momberger. She is a dear friend and also my cousin. She has amazing taste in music and I was so excited when she agreed to do a post. I'll let her take it from here. Also, as a personal aside, if you’re looking for a beverage to go along with said pool-hanging, have you passion tea lemonade? Lazy Summer Afternoon Mixtape. Graffiti6 “ Stare Into the Sun”. Young Galaxy “New Summer”. Okay so I maybe...
