October

Last month was a wonderful band-tober to remember, because we had so many family members come to enjoy the band performances with us. We watched football games, parades, a competition, and a band spectacular. The band won Grand Champion for the competition, which included a parade and field show, and I chaperoned during that very long day. The seniors were on the field to accept the plaques and trophy. 

In other news, Gabe turned l6. Charlotte had a band concert. And Zach (and other Boy Scouts) completed his Eagle Project of building and delivering benches to the same camping area where he did the landscaping. Halloween was celebrated on the 30th, and we followed Charlotte and her friend around the neighborhood on that chilly evening. On Friday the 31st the football team played its last regular season game, and the senior band members were recognized. The team remains undefeated and will go far in the upcoming playoffs, so the band is not finished yet.
