"Could you see my knees shaking up there, Mom?"

We aren't big party-throwers; and we've said for years that we wanted to throw a Christmas party for our friends but we haven't because of one reason or another ... the house wasn't just right; we couldn't find the time; everyone else was terribly busy ... blah, blah, blah. This year we were almost forced into it. And that's a very good thing.

Our friend Justin picked a date, brought over a couple of band mates, an amp, and some guitars. We supplied the food, the booze, and the friends. It was great.

And when the time came for Andrew and Davis's favorite song on the set list ... they were ready ... and they killed ...

Man they're awesome.

The next morning Andrew and I were downstairs and he leaned over to me and whispered, "Mom, I was famous last night."

You sure were buddy. You sure were.
