Holiday Band Concert

Tonight was a crazy night!  Zach had basketball practice and Kirstyn had her Holiday Band Concert.  Getting to everything and making sure everyone was where they needed to be was tricky.  Kirstyn did a wonderful job in her concert!  We love listening to her play music. Great job, Kirstyn!  Keep up the great musical work!

Lunch with Zach

We also got a fun letter from
