US HERE THEY COME!!!



After a few days of packing, unpacking, repacking...picking up last minute things..checking lists...meetings for parents and a WONDERFUL Band Concert last night...my oldest DD has left on her Band Trip of a lifetime! She is heading to the US with 99 other students and several chaperones. You could feel their excitment! The concert last night was mixed emotions for me...it is the last performance I will see my daughter play in...she is not taking band next year...she cannot fit it into her classes and achieve what she hopes to. However...what a way to finish up!!!

I have hopes that my youngest will enter band next year. I ask that she try it for a year (and hope she will continue!) my son took it for one year, but it really did not interest him.

So fellow bloggers, that's why I really haven't been around much the last few days. Do you know how much a teenager needs for a few days!!!!!!??????LOL

Have a Great evening!
