Santa has left the Building

You might remember this previous post from our oldest daughter's last high school band concert. Believe it or not, my wife and I really enjoy going to these. There really are some talented kids there. Tonight was the Christmas (or winter if you prefer) concert for Jazz Band, Symphonic Band & Orchestra. Some of the songs carried the holiday theme, but they also played other non-seasonal songs. They led off with a wonderful version of "Fly Me To The Moon" as well as a fun upbeat song called "Goomba Boomba." Another concert well worth attending.

Tonight was a crazy night. Besides my wife and I both working full days, two of our three kids had something going on this evening. Our youngest went to her first Girl Scout meeting and our middle (PITA) teenager had a concert. She plays saxophone in the school band. Heaven forbid we miss even one of the concerts. Sooooo, we drop off the Girl Scout, rush over to the High School to catch one of the best concerts we have been to. You wouldn't believe how really good they were, the band, orchestra and the choir. One of the hits of the night was the string section performing "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin. By the time the concert was over it was time to pick up the Girl Scout, have a late dinner, a quick post to the blog, then to bed. A good night was had by all!
