Congratulations, Xavier!

On Saturday morning Xavier competed in the Thursday Musical competition. I thought that we had plenty of time to get to the St. Thomas campus, so we got into a conversation in the car about the real estate profession (and other more independent means of making a living). Then we started talking about whether or not he wants to go to college, and before we knew it we were running late. A little note to self: if I talk while I'm driving I tend to slow down. Can't seem to multi-task very well anymore! Anyway, bare knuckle moments trying to find the right building! You would think that it would not be a great way to go into a competition but it worked alright for Xavier. After the "audition" Xavier came out with only one comment, "Exquisite! I did it exquisitely!" He was so happy that he performed a near perfect piece, now he is ruminating over how he got in that sweet spot to begin with. To make a sweet story even better he won 1st place! Congratulations, Xavier! And also congratulations to our friend Christopher Garwood who got the 2nd place.
