Katie's Orchestra concert and CELLO COMPETITION!! :)

Katie has been working VERY hard this year and especially this month on the cello!! :) She made her way to 3rd chair through some very tough competitors!! She has had a WONDERFUL orchestra teacher in 8th and 9th grade. Ms. Jimenez. She has come a long way!! Then it's been extra awesome to have Dave's aunt Linda teach Katie privately. They had a Utah Valley Youth Strings festival that Katie competed in and she ROCKED it! So proud of her!! :)
