Fix You and Awesome Aussies

Last night Ella rocked it at her high school talent show!
I brought my camera to record her in HD but damn,
I didn't bring the tripod and it's super jittery-
plus I didn't set the microphone right (need to learn how to do that too).
Luckily Jason had his iPhone at the ready.

Although you can't really SEE her in the video,
you can definitely HEAR her.
She sang "Fix You" by Coldplay.
Enjoy...



No fear, she just belted it!
We're so proud of her.

And with no way to bridge my daughter with Australian animals-
Lights will guide you home to happy kookaburras...
Eh-hem.

The Spoonflower Australian animals contest is now open.
Awesome Aussies is my design.
I imagine them on pajamas.
Or sheets.
Or maybe pillows?

Pajamas, sheets and pillows - yes to all of the above! Maybe a quilted floor mat for a child's room, too. Or a shower curtain! The animals are so cute. I think Australia got more than its fair share of cute critters.

Lovely singing voice! And great song choice!

Thanks! She reads the blog, so she'll see your comments :)

Jackie- isn't it funny how we have such different tastes but there are so many things we have in common too?

Cindy- Ahh! Great to hear from you :) I need to get back on IF soon. Wonderful suggestions, thank you.

How old is Ella, again? She has a very rich voice. I listened to the whole thing. Very well done! :) I so enjoyed being on stage when I was a teenager. Had a few lead roles in school musicals... solos... stuff like that. Such great memories. Ella has a great voice.

And I really like your fabric design, too! Talent all around at your place :)

p.s. Your husband's "woooooo!" at the end was awesome. Proud daddy :)

Jacci- Thanks. You're sweet.
Ella is 14 and loving the stage too. Making life long memories. Sounds like you're also a great singer! Would love to hear something from you and your kids too...hmmm, maybe?

Definitely a proud daddy.
He's my ex but we're very good friends.
