My mother, aunts and sisters all came through and set up a delicious dinner for us.  It was a huge success!!  Everyone loved the food and a good time was had by all.  My niece Naomi even danced a couple of hula dances for everyone.  She had all of the women in tears with her beautiful performance.  I wish I\u2019d had the thought to film it, but I didn\u2019t.  Oh well!  It was a beautiful day!<\/p>\n<p>After dinner, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/stanleyrandolph\" target=\"_blank\"> Stanley <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/goldenbolden\" target=\"_blank\"> Kyle <\/a>went with me and my friends <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/sundramanning\" target=\"_blank\">Sundra<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/mayakron\" target=\"_blank\"> Maya <\/a>to see fantastic guitarist\/pianist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/stanleyjordanmusic\" target=\"_blank\"> Stanley Jordan<\/a>.  My friend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/davidmhaynes\" target=\"_blank\">David \u201cFingers\u201d Haynes<\/a> was on drums and <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Charnett_Moffett\" target=\"_blank\">Charnett Moffett<\/a> was on bass.  The concert was awesome!  My favorite was the final piece, played solo by Stanely on guitar, \u201cSomewhere Over The Rainbow\u201d.  Stanley also performed a movement from a Mozart Symphony.  His playing was sublime, and he inspired me to increase my compositional creativity in a similar fashion.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, it was a fantastic day off! : ><\/p>\n<p>Me with the group, Me with David Haynes, Me with Stanley Jordan<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_CVEzz0Co-pg\/SHxMsvE-FNI\/AAAAAAAAAKg\/c5q6pOKodww\/s1600-h\/DSCN0270.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_CVEzz0Co-pg\/SHxMsvE-FNI\/AAAAAAAAAKg\/c5q6pOKodww\/s200\/DSCN0270.JPG\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223133999278200018\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_CVEzz0Co-pg\/SHxMtJKmWRI\/AAAAAAAAAKo\/pflkg99yRmY\/s1600-h\/DSCN0272.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_CVEzz0Co-pg\/SHxMtJKmWRI\/AAAAAAAAAKo\/pflkg99yRmY\/s200\/DSCN0272.JPG\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223134006281132306\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_CVEzz0Co-pg\/SHxMtmd6SiI\/AAAAAAAAAKw\/jDcIRnq3yq8\/s1600-h\/DSCN0273.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_CVEzz0Co-pg\/SHxMtmd6SiI\/AAAAAAAAAKw\/jDcIRnq3yq8\/s200\/DSCN0273.JPG\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223134014146759202\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we had a day off and I invited everyone to my house for dinner.
