Today, six members of the Jim and Sue Ahrens family presented a holiday instrumental music treat. All four of their daughters were in town along with Jim and Sue’s four grandchildren. Aaron and McKenna Miller have been presenting holiday music at Mayflower since 2010. Aaron, in his first year of a chemistry masters program at the University of Oregon, played a number of piano pieces, notably Chopin, and accompanied the other family members. McKenna, a junior in actuarial science at Drake University, played a melodious cello, including a Bach recital piece. Their mother Dawn Miller joined in a few pieces with clarinet. Lauren Krippner, a high school senior in St. Louis, played a sweet violin with her cousins. Younger sister Megan, an eighth-grader, played a trombone piece. Their father Ryan performed a bass guitar song.
