Hey guys! Here's a factory picture of my new guitar, a beautiful Crafter acoustic electric (TC035N for those of you that want to dig into the details of the guitar on the site). Because they helped us out so much this past week, I want to give a shout out to Johnny Paul's Music Shop, which is where Naunie purchased the guitar for my birthday.
How has Johnny Paul's helped this week? Well, this was Rock Camp week, and Johnny Paul's gave several very generous donations including our three grand prizes for the week: an Austin electric guitar, Sonar Home Studio Software, and a Roll Up Piano. All told, they donated over $1,200 worth of merchandise for the first FBC Aledo Rock Camp. Overall, it was a great success. We had 28 junior and senior high students participate, creating 8 bands that performed two songs each last night, ranging from "Smoke On The Water" and "Sweet Home Alabama," to "Meant To Live" and "We Are One Tonight." I think that they all had a grand time (yep, I said grand - I'm in my thirties...I'm allowed).
Next up - the birthday of my lovely wife! Naunie turns "Twenty-eleven" tomorrow. Monday and Tuesday I'm at Boys and Girls Town Training for Arlington ISD, and then I leave Tuesday afternoon to go to the National Worship Leaders Conference in Austin. So yeah, I'm still kinda busy. I do get a week "off" after that though, and I'll spend several days at my school and at the music store.
