Band and First Day of School

David and Pierce- hip 6th graders

Here is the picture of Pierce after school on his first day of middle school!  He and friend David are taking band.  Here in Arlington, WA, band starts in 6th grade- which is a little late, but we'll take it.

Pierce is going to play trumpet, because that was the instrument on hand.  Plus we have all the books.

David planned on playing the trumpet...until today.  Before school let out, his mom told me they had just rented David's trumpet and got a shiny new one- yehaw! David walks all smooth to the car and says  "Guess what Mom?! I get to play the french horn!"

I wish I had a video of the laugh that came out of Mom's mouth.  Priceless music moment!

Hooray for the first day of school!
