Band Concert

Tonight was Grant's first band concert of 6th grade. He was VERY excited to perform. He loves playing the clarinet. The 6th grade band played the following songs: Hot cross Buns, Au Claire de la Lune, Donkey Round, Jingle Bells, Dreydl, Dreydl, Surprise, symphony, Frere Jaques, Jolly Old St. Nicholas, Holiday Sampler, and The Nutcracker. Grant is one of the few kids in the band that played an instrument last year.
This is Grant after his performance telling me how awesome he is. He knows no humility!
Grant now wants to learn how to play the flute. He is also learning to play the piano. He has a keyboard in his room and I recently purchased a book to learn how to play the piano. So now each evening, I go in his room and am learning to play the piano. I find it very challenging to read the notes. However, Grant tells me I'm doing a good job. He loves having someone else in the house that is attempting to play an instrument.
