Last week, I had what one would call a well-balanced day: I climbed out of bed at 5:15 a.m. for a 6-mile run, coming home just in time to make my kids a hot breakfast and send them off to school with a home-packed lunch. I tidied the house, attended a PTA meeting, called my sister, caught up with a friend at the local library, squeezed in a reading/piano lesson with my preschooler and spent a few hours on my latest manuscript. I rushed home in time to collect all the kids, usher them through homework/piano practice/violin practice and serve the family yet another homecooked meal with not one, but two vegetable side dishes. After everyone was in bed I tidied the house, prepped lunches for the next day, read my scriptures, and promptly collapsed in bed.

This is hard for me to write about. Let’s just get that out there.

The Piano Guys have more than 3 million YouTube subscribers. But for one married couple from New Jersey, the relationship with the popular musicians goes beyond mere fandom.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has collaborated with the musical group The Piano Guys to produce a video celebrating the birth and life of Jesus Christ. The video was filmed at the Church’s Jerusalem set in Goshen, Utah, and features portions of Bible videos previously produced by the Church.

She fervently believes in bringing back naptime for the world at large and survives these days through the comfort of coke zero, and knowing that when God gives us a calling he has already factored in our stupidity.

The Piano Guys recently posted this live performance of "A Thousand Years" at Red Rocks that is simply stunning.

Josh Wright's flying fingers at the piano have wowed us before, and his newest album of piano magnificence, My Favorite Things, fuses together classical and pop music, with music by Mozart and Chopin as well as favorites like "Stairway to Heaven," "Hedwig's Theme," and "Over the Rainbow."
