Grieg

I am glad that both Ailsa and Jensen took piano lessons and have stuck with it. It is very nice to hear them play and I think they enjoy it a lot as well. Lately, Ailsa has been learning some of Edvard Grieg's pieces. Sunday she was running through Anitra's Dance from Peer Gynt. She hasn't spent much time with it. I was watching her and she got to a point where she was struggling and muttered soflty under her breath, "Well, now he's just showing off."

Mrs. Alex Knaphus (the other Britty)


Brittany Wilhelm was married last Tuesday. It was a very nice occasion. We were afraid we might encounter rain at the outdoor venue (Log Haven in Mill Creek). But, it was a wonderful day. The bride was beautiful and the flower girl (Laney) was stellar. At one point while taking family pictures Brittany claimed she was being stung on her bum by a bee under her dress. We surmised that it could be a bobby pin or something. She was quite insistent, lifted up the ample train and canopy, made her way north and eventually released a hornet that was trapped under her dress. The reception was at a private residence in the East Mill Creek area of Salt Lake. This home has a spectacular back yard with the creek running through it, a bridge over the creek.
