The room began to fill and some of us went out to greet folks.
When I stepped out of the door I was amazed by the crowd! Nearly 300 people came for the concert.
The entire family performing "What Child Is This?" We wore our Renaissance costumes. Each of us girls had made our own, I made mom's, and Krista made Dad and Noah's costumes.
It was as absolute delight to have Noah join us with is guitar and voice!
