I think they've got talent!

Afore-mentioned generous neighbors lent us their video camera so that you can actually HEAR these performances. Always a plus with musical numbers. :)

Each video clip is around a minute in length. Hope you enjoy!

The lighting is a little funky, but that's probably typical of cultural hall performances, eh?

No question they've got talent!
Thank you for posting those. It was almost as good as being there. I wish we were neighbors and I didn't have to settle for video recordings!

AWESOME!!! Oh, that was so much fun to watch these videos. Your boys' personalities really come out in their performances. And yes, they have talent (not really surprised considering their mom and dad's genes...)

Talk about talent!!! I'm so grateful you posted these! Thank you! I wish you could teach me how to teach my kids to play the piano so well. You and your hubby are such amazing teachers (and musicians) yourselves that I'm not at all surprised at the talent your children have. I think it's awesome that you are passing on the gift of music to them.

Exacto plays violin better than a lot of kids in my old high school orchestra!

Oh, very talented! What cute boys and how blessed they are to have a mom and dad that see the importance of developing these incredible talents!

Oh, I loved the videos -- not only their cute bows (especially Hummer's, so professional!) but seeing them in action in general. It helps me know them even far away.

Your boys are so talented! Good work Mom and Dad. Wish I could have been at the talent show but instead I was spending the evening in a hospital bed :( Thanks for sharing a glimpse of it!

Michelle,
Thank you so much for the sweet compliment on my blog. I read through Benjamin's story through my tears. I have had friends and family members affected by still birth, and can only glimpse at the pain that must be involved. I am so happy to see you enjoying your life with your boys, knowing that you will get to raise that little one in the life to come.

We all know pain in this life, some of us more than others, but how blessed we are to have the knowledge we do that all these things will work together for our good.

Wishing you all the best,
~Jennifer

How delightful! I "think" they've got talent too. It was so fun to watch the actual performance. It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. A video clip is worth a bazillion! Thank you so much for posting them. Wished we could have been there. This was second best. Sure love those Baker boys!

YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!!! HIP, HIP HOORAYYYYYY!!!! HOW TERRIFIC, GREAT, WONDERFUL, TALENTED, THE LIST GOES ON! They are blessed with such talent. I guess with parents like you ----- how could they not be? It is a good thing that you encourage, and support them in their endeavors. It blesses us all. Keep up the good work Fluffy, Exacto, and Hummer ---- and lets not forget mom and dad! Love, Janice ( Sister Hewett )

You have very talented children. I can't wait to get our kiddos involved in some sort of music. We just need more $$$ for that.

Exacto, your tone and intonation are astounding.
