The ever popular singing group, The Sound Singers, began in 1976 and have now disbanded here in 2010. That's a continuous performance history of 34 years! Marcie T was privileged to sing with this group for 20 of those 34 years. She was fortunate to be invited to sing with them shortly after we moved here in 1990. For several years, their "Saturday morning at 7:30 a.m. practices" were held at the Turner abode, much to the delight of the 3 growing children:) Our poor kids have never been able to really like a "red robin" after being woken by the sounds of that song on so many Saturdays - days they looked forward to maybe sleeping in - but not so! The truth be known, they really didn't mind the music at all, it was the prelude talking and laughing for an hour before the 30 minute practice that they disliked!
Last Sunday, the group sang in Mike and Judy Bigelow's Sacrament meeting before they leave to serve a mission in Buenos Aires Argentina. A few days later singers and spouses met for a lovely dinner.
After eating, the men were treated with a tune and choreography from one of their classics!
We were all very impressed that they still had the "moves".
Bringing their final tune to its conclusion.
They have some wonderful memories to savor over the years.
We couldn't help wonder if it had been the boys who had formed the group - pretty good on their feet, eh? (Look at your Dad's face, he really got into it!!)
The whole gang together.
Just this last Friday night we had a ward party called "pumpkins, pies, and ugly ties". We were invited to carve a pumpkin, bake a pie, and wear an ugly tie for judging. Here is a sampling of the ties. We qutie enjoyed Brother George's (far left) entry of the "Cact Tie!"
