Eighteen

...in a row that is. Eighteen years of SUPERIOR ratings for the NPHS Falcon band at the regional contest. I told you they were good! They did awesome. They performed 3 songs and after performing they had sight reading. What is that? I, of course, had to overhear someone talking about it to know what it was. The entire band is given a sheet of music. They have only a few minutes to study it and practice it...not sure exactly how long. They must then perform it for the judges after everyone has left the auditorium. No audience. Ms. D was very proud of their sight reading.

Contest went all day Monday and Tuesday with NP performing at 8:30 Monday night. Chase is a Freshman officer and had to work it all day both days. It was at NP and all officers were required to work it. He was SO tired but he loved it. I am so glad that he is a part of something so awesome. He did AWESOME! I think it is so cool that he can, as Mike says, toot his horn-and with horrible asthma. Go figure!

Chase and Allison after the contest.

She had to come straight from her softball game.

The key chain Chase got Allison for Christmas. We had some fun with the camera as we sat waiting for the judges results.
Coming out of the contest. Look who just happens to be behind them...Carson-and look at the hair on that girl behind them. That girl has so much hair!
A little musical entertainment for your viewing pleasure.

Pause the playlist on the right to watch.


I thought these things were the coolest and they did a great job.

That's Chase over there to the right.

Sounding Great!

By the way, did I tell you that Chase made All-Region? Not too shabby. Mike actually had no idea what it meant. Honey, it's like making all-conference and all-state.

You go, Chase!

SUPERIOR~
