Kaitee's 17th & Final Band Concerts of 2019

We were pretty busy the last 2 weeks of May - concerts, birthdays, family weekends, concerts, banquets and more concerts!

We finally got some great shots of Will during his band concert! He typically gets hidden behind a handful of taller kids.
We said goodbye to Will's band director/teacher - he will be retiring at the end of this school year. Mr. Slothower is a trombone player as well and worked with Will the past two years to help him improve on his playing. We will miss Mr. Slothower but wish him the best on his retirement!
We then enjoyed the Wilson Jazz Band and looked around at the art on display (Will had his Kyle Schwarber drawing on display).
We celebrated #17 for Kaitee!  It was an extra special birthday as it was her Golden Birthday! We made some brownies and added some ice cream - added some gold "bling" and had a great night!
A few weeks later (with extended family in town), we celebrated the May birthdays - Kaitee, Uncle Steve & Aunt Barb.

Watch Steve - he never even blew out his own candle...he focused all of his attention on Kaitee's candles!
Alex also had a few band concerts to close out the school year. I took a few pictures of her band concert but none during the jazz concert.

Just a few weeks before this concert, she started playing the piccolo. I am amazed by her music talent! She had a solo on her flute as well as switching from flute to piccolo during this song. Sorry for the spotty blurriness. The camera wouldn't cooperate!
Add in a music banquet, an end of the year dinner and choir concerts, it was busy!
