Marching Bulldogs

Mitchell marched with the Jr./Sr. Band at Mesick's Homecoming this Friday night.  What an experience!

Spirit Week

I am still struggling with the concept that my oldest son is in 7th grade this year.   Life is definitely starting to change.

As a part of homecoming, Mitchell had fun with spirit week.  Mis-Match Monday and Tragic Tuesday were particularly fun.

On Friday, Mitchell marched with the band during the pep assembly.  They did a great job!

Brass Hardware

Owen is in 5th grade this year, which means he gets to join the band!  We had pre-Christmas levels of excitement as instrument fittings approached; the excitement continued with a buzz as rentals took place and Owen came home with a trombone.  He had his first band session with Mr. Jones this week, and things really get underway next week.

School Bells Ringing, Version 2015

We got our "back-to-school" groove on today; this year we have a 7th, 5th, and 3rd grader.  We all managed to obey the alarm clocks this morning, and even ran through the morning routine without any hiccups. Yay!

And what first day would be complete without new shoes?
