In just a few days (Tuesday 7 May) Penny and I head off to Arlington, Texas! I am one of the featured speakers at the Arlington Book Fair. It is a weekend conference for home schoolers, and draws about 6,000 people each year. It’s so exciting to have my twin sister coming with me!! She will be manning our book booth while I do my speaking slots – three workshops each day. Then after the fair, we are doing a few concerts together in Texas, and one in Ventura, California. Here is a copy of the email that the organizer has just sent out advertising the concerts. Pen and I would appreciate your prayers for safe travels, and that our speaking and singing will be a blessing. Thanks so much!
(Do you like the photo??? I tell you, it took us quite some time before we got one that we could use…Milly was a very patient photographer. 🙂 See some more of her photos at the bottom of this post if you like…)
New Zealand twin sisters Penny and Rosie in concert
May 14, 16, 17
Richardson TX and No. Richland Hills TX
Free Admission
In addition to hearing our New Zealand featured speaker Rosie Boom at the Home School Book Fair next week, you will have a second opportunity to hear Rosie and her twin sister Penny in concert the following week. Bring your family and friends. No charge for admission.
Identical twins Rose and Penelope from New Zealand like to think they would have sung their first duet in their mother’s womb. They were given their first guitars at age ten and have been singing together since. They are both songwriters and between them have written scores of songs and recorded a number of CDs. They play acoustic guitar in various styles ranging from folk to ballad to blues. Their concerts are warm and intimate, and their music has been described as heart-moving and heart-healing. They love to sing about faith and family, and bring both encouragement and a challenge. An evening with the twins is an enjoyable, yet heart–moving and motivating experience, appealing to all ages.
