Well, for those who have been sort of following our travels over the last while, it may come as a surprise to you that I'm sitting in a hotel room in Downtown San Francisco! The choir and 6 of us chaperones were flown down to sing at a BIG Gala, put on by oneXone (onexone.org)! It really is incredible to think of all the efforts being made to stop poverty in Africa ... to help out a continent in need! Yes, unfortunately it has become a "fad" to help Africa ... but fad or not, both awareness and money are being raised!! Who can complain about that!
Tomorrow, the kids will be singing along side Josh Groban, singing his well known, 'You Raise Me Up'! They'll also be performing with an upcoming artist named Nikki Yanofsky! Matt Damon is MCing the event and other names like Carlos Santana and Brad Pitt are apparently going to be kicking around! Needless to say, there's a little bit of pressure on the whole "Professionalism" aspect of things, but our kids will be able to handle it!! They're all really excited to sing with "Uncle Josh!"
I'll take some pics backstage and on the red carpet and post some of them up here! I'll also give an update as to how everything went! As you can tell, it has been a while since my last post, but now that you know where we're at, I'm sure you can understand why I haven't really had a whole lot of time to focus on writing on my blog!! We're thinking / hoping that life will become more 'regular' upon arrival back in Indiannapolis on Saturday morning! We shall see ...
Thanks for your continued prayers and support!!
I'll write again within a few days (after tomorrow night)

That sounds like it will be so much fun! You get to be on the red carpet Andrew!
Last year the ACC was on the Ellen show, so maybe a tv career is somewhere in your future!
Have fun! I can't wait to see some pictures!
