Last friday evening I got one of my first official gigs. I played the piano for a local restaurant called the Vintage Press! Its an elegant fine dinning restaurant and I was both nervous and excited to be there. I had to play for an hour and a half straight through with only a 15-30 second break between songs to change books/music sheets. You can't completely tell from this photo but I'm up on a loft built just for the piano. I had to climb this neat old spiral staircase to get up there. Thank goodness I'm not afraid of heights :)

Weekend in Canyon Country

Last Friday and Saturday, my Mom, Andrew and I drove down to my Grandparents to help them with a yard sale they were putting on. They just moved to Palmdale and have their old house in Canyon Country up for sale, so they needed to get it all cleaned out!

I've been neglecting "the voice of joyce"...so sorry to all who are faithful at checking my blog for posts! To be perfectly honest.....I've been into facebook of late (much easier to upload pics on there)! Anyways here are a few photos and some updates

Luke and I a few days after the wedding each had the day off from work and took a drive over to the beach for the day, so here's a couple shots of us enjoying the sunset!
