Latin Infusion Show

Greetings Once Again,I hope you enjoyed the music. I must thank Yolanda Turner for helping out for the first half hour of Sophies. Today's show was heavily influenced by latin flavors if you couldn't tell. I had a brief email conversation with Sara Serpa (really brief) and her music inspired this show. Check her out if you get the chance!As always your 4th Thursday Diva,Kimberly C.
