Lamb of God

Baylee had the opportunity to play with Zion's Youth in their performance of Lamb of God.  I really wanted her to write this post about her experience, but she is so busy I don't want to keep putting it off!  They played at the Smith Center this year and it was absolutely phenomenal.  The orchestra and choir is made up of high school kids (and a few select middle schoolers).  They practiced for 3 hours a day, 4 days a week, for just the 2 weeks before the performance.  And they sound like perfection!  It really is one of the most professional, spiritual, testimony building things I have ever got to see.  And it is even more so for the kids involved.  They originally were only going to do one show, but they sold out of tickets so quickly they added a second show.  But they ended up selling out both shows, a total of about 4000 people got to experience this.  I am so grateful for opportunities like this for Baylee.  And it surprises me every day that somehow I got a kid that could do something this fantastic!
