concert

Taylor on the left and Cassidy on the right – their first violin concert!

It seems like only yesterday they were so tiny – crawling on the floor – or walking to preschool with their backpacks as big as they were!

Cassidy – Sherry ( MORMOR) swede for mothers mother – Taylor – at the Alabama Theater for the Christmas show.

In the middle – Cassidy and then Taylor – first violin concert – they started at the beginning of the school year.

So proud of both of them – another milestone in their young lives.

Sherry – Taylor – and Papa. Love these moments in time – memories are priceless!

Cassidy and her mother – at the Alabama Theater Christmas show = mother and daughter – bonded for life.

PAPA’S WORLD – TAYLOR AND CASSIDY – FIRST VIOLIN CONCERT – FAMILY MEMORIES!

We purchased tickets – three for our neighbor and her parents and two for ourselves.

“STAND BY ME” – SPAINISH HARLEM” “UNDER THE BOARDWALK” ” CHARLIE BROWN”

“YACKITY YAK” ” THE GREAT PRENDER” “ON BROADWAY” “YOUNGBLOOD”

and the list goes on and on.

I guess trying to remember the ’50s and ’60s at our age is not easy –

and I hear music but I can’t really tell you each and every time who sings it!

But – regardless – it all came back one by one

as the songs came out to much delight.

For me, it brought back memories of our local park Tennis Courts.

I belonged to a group one step up from the Boy Scouts – called THE EXPLORERS!

We raised money for our trips and activities – one way was by holding dances at the Tennis Courts!

I think we charged 25 cents – sold soda and candy –

and someone – for my life, I can not remember who although I want to say Guy

spun those 45s!

All these songs we heard at the Alabama Theater from –

THE DRIFTERS – THE COASTERS and THE PLATTERS

were played those evenings under the park lights and stars!

A memorable concert – through the years and back in time –

this was the way it was when I was growing up!
