Seattle Interlude

KR and I headed over to Seattle on Friday to watch Ella in one of her Christmas performances with the Seattle Children's Choir (Saturday evening). The Choir has several age groups and Ella is in the youngest. All of the choirs performed individually and then together. They had some very professional musicians to accompany them and it was a nice evening. On Saturday before Ella's coming out, we volunteered to take Noah for a haircut, and after searching forever for one that wasn't packed (perhaps we found out why), we succeeded in getting him into a barber chair. He was okay at first, but as time went on, he got more and more agitated with the whole process. His head turning in all directions as he screamed may have influenced what Cher later described as a "disastercut". Maybe she will not be letting us take him for any haircuts in the near future.

Ella showing no signs of pre-performance jitters. The outfit is what here entire group wore and has the logo of the Choir. (December 14-15)
