I’ve Got the Music in Me: AVA

Be it the jingle of a sleigh bell or a new version of a classic holiday song, music has a way of making us feel merry!

Our shared love for seasonal tunes inspired us to create our very first Pink Chicken Holiday playlist and kick off the season with some inspiring performances by some of the young members of our flock. 

Please meet Ava!  She is an 8 year old supreme violinist.   I first insta-met Ava when her mom tagged us in one of her photos wearing pink chicken.  One hour later I had completely fallen in love with this talented little girl as I listened to so many of her beautiful performances.   I think you will fall in love too!   Read and listen!
