OK, I have time for this post: I can look at student papers while I wait for the videos to load.
Monday night was the kids' school band concert. They did a great job.
Catherine is in the school's Cadet Band -- all first-year players. Among her favorite pieces was "Bugler's Dream," which you will recognize as a song from the Olympics. Her trumpet section plays a big role in this one; she's at the end of the second row from the back -- the row that's kind of pushed in one space from the others:
While this is John's first year playing oboe, he's a member of the Advanced Band. His favorite piece: "Smoke on the Water"; John's the one with his shirt-tail hanging out:
For Peter, the eighth grader, this was his last school band concert (at least at this school; we're looking forward to many more next year). The four eighth graders got to perform solos. Peter's was called "Alto Rhapsody," backed up by the rest of the band.
All three kids did very well. We're immensely proud of them.
