Good luck everyone with Finals Week!

Tonight, Kirstyn had her Winter chorus concert and they really nailed it.  They sounded so good and we were really impressed! Even the boys were quiet and listened!  That’s a pretty big feat!  Great job Kirstyn!

Over the past 2 days,  Metea had their annual Collage concert.  Brittany participated in it and as always, the event was top notch and absolutely WONDERFUL!  It is no wonder that District 204 is awarded “Grammy Gold” status in the high schools almost every single year.  The talent is absolutely amazing!  Brittany’s orchestra did a

Today Pep Band started at Metea.  Brittany is so excited to get back together and make music with many of her fellow marching band friends!

Today we decided to get out of the house and have a day trip together as a family.  We drove up to the temple and let the kids walk around, and then we drove up into Wisconsin to go on a Jelly Belly factory tour.  Before doing that, we drove around Kenosha Wisconsin looking for

Tonight, all the honor choirs that feed into Waubonsie gathered at the high school for a concert.  They had a clinic beforehand with the high school directors and when they came out and performed, they sounded wonderful! Great job Kirstyn!  Way to go!  Keep on singing!  You really do sound beautiful!  

Today we attended parent/teacher conferences and it was a crazy day.  I went in late for work in order to go in and talk to Brittany’s teachers.   She is working hard and is struggling some, especially in physics (yuck!), but we know she’ll continue to work hard and try!  Tonight we went to Gombert and

Tonight, Kirstyn had a chorus concert with all the grades participating.  She did a GREAT job and they sounded wonderful! After each grade sang, they had a combined choral number with everyone and it was very cool.  The only drawback is that they only have the gym to sing in.  Had this been in a

Tonight, Zach had his 3rd Grade Musical at Gombert.  He did a GREAT job and said his part wonderfully!  Unfortunately, we didn’t get any good pictures (or can’t find them).  We always enjoy going to these events.  You just never know what you’re going to get and see.  It’s funny to watch how the kids

Tonight Kirstyn had a band concert at Waubonsie High School in the auditorium.  She did a wonderful job!  Every time we hear the band, they keep getting better and better! Great work little lady!  We love you!  

Tonight Brittany had an orchestra concert at Metea.  They always sound SO good when they play.  She had been practicing for the difficult song they were playing and felt ready. The high school orchestra also played a couple of numbers with the middle school orchestras and that was fun to watch as well.  It’s good

Today Ben went on a field trip to a pumpkin patch with his pre-school class.  He had a great time and loved all the activities!  His helpers took a bunch of pictures and sent them to us… Ben also got to pet a bunch of barnyard animals, play on other slides, and have a great
