A Hobbit's Tale

One may ask what in the world the name of this blog means. Let me explain. My dad has called me "Sherwi" (the "r" is sort of silent, hard to explain how to pronounce it)my whole life. I'm not sure where it comes from. Maybe it was the way I said my own name when I was a wee tot. Nonetheless, it has stuck with me my whole life. When Lord of the Rings became popular, my brothers started calling me Sherwi Baggins due to my tall stature. I'm honored to have it as a nickname. Hobbits rock!

A Night at the Symphony!

James has been sort of appalled that I had never been to the symphony. He surprised me with tickets to the Utah Symphony. They performed the best of John Williams. It was extra awesome! Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, Schindler's List...just to name a few. Did you know John Williams composed the Olympics Fanfare theme? I sure didn't! I don't get how people can be so brilliant and compose such beautiful music. It really blows my mind!
