A few weeks ago, Chatter and Chitter performed at their school’s annual Veteran’s Day Program.
There was a pre show warm up;
There were pre show nerves;
As always-there was pre show fussing;
There was pre show silliness;
And there was some mighty fine singing and picking by two pretty girls if I do say so myself. Take a listen and see if you like it as much as I do.
And their favorite Veteran was even there to tune the guitar for them. All in all it was a fantastic Veteran’s Day Program-made possible by all the kids-and grownups who participated in it.

November 19, 2012 at 6:57 amMighty fine singing and playing, and your right they are 2 pretty girls, want be long or (may already be) bringing some ole germy boy home with them. A friend of mine told me when his daughter got old enough to date he was going to shoot the first boy and hang him on the porch like a crow and it would keep the rest away… 😉

What a wonderful tribute to our Veterans. The girls did a great rendition of the song. They are so lucky to have a Veteran mentor to help them along.
I love all the pictures. Thanks for sharing.
Just great!
Thanks Tipper,

November 18, 2012 at 10:22 amEveryone in your family seems to have great talent. You can be proud of your beautiful daughters.
Miss Cindy
November 18, 2012 at 9:16 amOh No!!! My sound is not working and I can’t hear it.
I know their wonderful and I want to hear it. Guess I’ll have to go visit a neighbor with a computer while I try to figure out what is wrong with mine.
I love the hats! I know that is Grannie’s work. She can crochet anything. In fact at this very moment I have on a hat that she crocheted for me.
Shirla
November 18, 2012 at 9:09 amI agree. Some mighty fine picking and singing by two beautiful girls. That’s an excellent way to model one of Granny’s hats.

November 18, 2012 at 8:57 amNow that’s what I’ve been talking about. The quitar had its part and Chatter did very well playing it but it didn’t dominate. Their voices were clear and distinct. Their harmony was excellent! Beautiful to hear and beautiful to see! Bravo! Encore!
I see stars on the horizon!

November 18, 2012 at 8:56 amBeautiful rendition of a wonderful hymn. Seeing your family work together in harmony makes me smile and smile. Thank you for sharing.

November 18, 2012 at 8:19 amYour daughters are so lovely and talented. I have 3 yr. old granddaughters. One has the most beautiful red hair and the other is medium blonde and has a darker complexion. I can see the Cherokee Indian in her. Needless to say, they don’t favor(old-fashioned word). Their father is an accomplished pianist and guitarist. I dream of seeing them performing like your daughters one day.

November 18, 2012 at 8:04 amThank you, Chitter and Chatter, for a a very fine Veterans Day tribute in song; well-performed and stately. You inspired me! I am glad schools still have days to remember and in tribute, and allow students to perform! And thanks to Pap, your favorite veteran, for his service to our country, and for helping to bring up two beautiful, patriotic and talented granddaughters! I went to a Veterans Day service here at Georgia War Veterans’ Home, and a student led us all in singing “The Star Spangled Banner”. I always thrill to the words and music, and having young folks sing it makes it even more inspiring!

November 18, 2012 at 8:00 amthe song is beautiful and so are your girls. i harmonized with them, but you would not want to here it.

November 18, 2012 at 7:52 amBest I ever heard, sweet sister harmony. Will compare all others to this now.

November 18, 2012 at 7:38 amWell done! They are such talented girls and I just love the way they present themselves. They show pride in what they are performing. Thanks for honoring the veterans; I am married to one who gave thirty-one years to his country.

The music was great (as usual). One of the girls (and I still can’t tell them apart) had on the neatest cap. Did your Momma make that or was it store bought?
