Catherine and Thomas had a band concert this week. Generally speaking, I don't enjoy their concerts. Often, it is a great deal of work for me due to my band volunteer responsibilities, and I don't necessarily love sitting through the music. This week though, was something very different. Thomas's band was second, and I love how much he loves band. His eighth grade class is a really fabulous group of kids, and with it being a smaller group I have the opportunity to know the kids a little better.
Catherine's group was the last one. They dressed in their marching band uniforms, and although they couldn't perform the movements of their show, they could play the music. This is by far the best group of students that have been in marching band since I've been involved with the Boosters (Robert's eighth grade year). I truly like and enjoy this year's marching band students, and I especially love watching how much FUN they have while performing. They love being out there and it shows. For the first time, I really enjoyed being able to be the band concert!
