My kids singing and jamming along to the band at our local summer concert;
The Flower Duet from Lakme (in my mind, the most exquisite opera duet ever);
The wind rustling through the leaves of a coconut tree on the tropical beach we plan to go to this December;
CleanBoy saying "You can leave now, mama" on the first day at his new preschool;
The Pea declaring, "I love school! And Mrs. M. is the best teacher ever!";
The sizzle of burgers and onions and mushrooms on the grill when we haven't had anything to eat all afternoon;
My sister's voice over the phone, telling me that her family is moving from Boise (3 hr. plane ride) to Pleasanton (40 minute drive);
Overhearing parents at school rave about the new school logo shirts (which I designed) and the new online storefront (which I created);
A slideshow of photos of my grandmother through the years, set to the music of James Blunt's "You're Beautiful" (I'm going to show it at her 87th birthday party this December);
Alfie checking me out in my new blouse, with a glint in his eye and a smile on his face, saying in his roguish English accent, "You look nice..."

Love the photo! It could also pass for the 'happy' theme. :)
Oh, and I can relate to the sound of sizzling food being music... it's certainly music to my ears right now. I'm starved.....
Sounds like you all had a great time. I am happy to see the kids really enjoyed the music. Have a good weekend.
What an interesting take on this theme!
Come and see mine.
what an awesome shot--they look so content sitting there!!
Very nice shot!
I love when my kids sing too. That is THE BEST music!
I also think it will be VERY SPECIAL for your grandma's 87th slide show to hear YOUR BEAUTIFUL! It is such a nice song. My favorite piece of Music is Cello Suite No 1 in G mAjor, BWV 1007, Prelude! Gorgeous. My daughter plays it for me!
Lovely photo and a great post. Happy weekend
The smile says it all!
Your post is so unique, I love it!
You're invited to come visit me at: Junk In My Trunk
Fabulous post. I love the photograph and your words too. Very musical from start to finish.
Great post for the theme. I absolutely love the tropical beach photo!
Happy Weekend.
The photo is lovely and all your music ideas are great. I especially like the one of your grandmothers pictures to Your beautiful. A lovely idea. Sara from farmingfriends
nice shot and a great post.
happy music hunting!
Excellent! Children's noises may be irritating to the ear at times but mostly they are music to a parent's ears or maybe to a grandma's ears like mine.
Oh..beautiful entry! There's nothing more wonderful than hearing those kids cute voices:)
Mine's up as well!
Those are many pleasing sounds, indeed!
what a sweet post! :)
loved that part when your CleanBoy said, "you can leave now, mama".
ahhh ... makes you feel good that you raised such a confident kid! :)

Looks like your children had fun. Nice shot!

It's all music to your ears, isn't it? hehe...
