All City Concert



All the Benton band parents converged in one spot tonight. Benton bands from beginning 6th to Seniors played together at the All City Concert. It's cool to listen to the progression through the years. I can honestly say Jamie's band (8th grade Junior High) was at least as good as the Seniors. They are so talented. They performed the Batman Theme from the new movie series. They sounded so good. Finally, something worthy of pictures other than piles of laundry. We filled the arena up. It was standing room only as usual. The entire floor was covered with musicians. All of Benton's band directors work together to put on a great show. These guys are growing up before my eyes.

Busy weekend ahead. Sarah's class party is tomorrow. The Father daughter banquet is Saturday. I have to help set up both. There should be several fabulous photos from those
events.

We had one interesting event. I think it was Monday night. The night the storms came through. The wind blew so hard during the storms it sucked the french door enough to set off our security alarm. That got everyone up in a hurry. Chihuahuas were barking, Sarah was crying while Mike and Jamie grabbed weapons. This was 3 am. Not exactly a pleasant nights sleep.

Still doing CLX. I have completed week one of the Burn series plus the cardios and ab workouts. I got really motivated and did the whole measuring thing and took before pictures. Oh my. I have a long way to go.
