Emily's Last Band Concert

While we start wrapping up another school year, we're also celebrating the end of Emily's middle school days! We have loved attending all of her band concerts, and her last one was no different! Well done, Emily! We're so proud of you!



Her band teacher has been wonderful, and wrote a sweet note to the parents in the program...


Our neighbor & friend hasn't missed a single band concert in the past 6 years between Abby & Emily... She's a true supporter!


A few middle school concerts over the past 2 years (too bad 6th grade was virtual, and there weren't any that year...)


This concert had a bit of a twist... The kids got to put the names of whomever they wanted in a jar to be picked as a guest conductor for one of their pieces... and I got picked! It was a little nerve wracking, and I did terribly, but it was fun, and Emily loved having me there- even with my little dramatic flairs in conducting!



You can check out some embarrassing clips in this video:


Emily's grown a lot in the past 2 years... Thank you to Mr. Grimes for all his support on a job well done!


Great job Emily! We're so proud of you!
