Marching Band

 I hope to have an RSC post later today. Last night I finally went to see the marching band play at a football game.  The temp was in the 80's as the sun was setting and was a comfortable 74 at the end of the game. They did an amazing job all game. They started with the national anthem after marching onto the field.


Led by their director Ms. Reardon.


The halftime show was led by the drum major Landon - who is a Junior. This group did such a great job and has spent over 9 hours a week since before school to perfect their routine. They had a competition last weekend and have 2 more coming up the next two weekends. Of course, there is away football games each Friday and then competition far away all day Saturday. These are dedicated individuals!







Next time, I'll try and remember to video it! 
The dog has been walked and played with and lots of attention. Grumpy people are just waking up. Time to head to horses, hopefully the grumpy tired girl is in a better mood once she gets on a horse! I have a feeling she will sleep in until noon tomorrow! She deserves it after a grueling week. First quarter of school is in the books. Oh, not sure I mentioned it last week, but Aidan got the invite to the HS Robotics team that will have a tournament in Jacksonville (or Tallahassee I forget which) for 4 days in April. It will be on 3 D printing so he will be learning design and all about that for the next few months. Happy to see both involved in things they enjoy.

Just caught up on your posts Deb. When I used to drive in the states, Cracker Barrell was one of our favourite stops...you knew just what you were getting.My first time eating grits was in a Cracker Barrell. Back in those days, it surprised us how smoking was allowed when it was banned in restaurants in Canada. Anyway, no grass is growing beneath your feet that's for sure.And your kids are doing so well. Love marching bands too.

That brings back lots of memories! Glad they are doing well - marching band is definitely a dedicated group. The robotics always sounds so interesting, too. It's always good to have your kids involved in activities they love!
