Marching Band Debut

Mags was very excited about her first official marching band experience.  They marched in the Homecoming parade.  Not too bad for 8th graders and their first time marching.  After they marched around the block, she put her instrument away and jumped on the cross country float.  Max walked with the tae kwon do folks and broke some boards.

I was merely paparazzi.

Tiger Homecoming

Last Thursday was our Homecoming parade, which I think was even bigger than the Independence Day parade this year!! (That means more tractors.) Students are randomly selected to ride on a float for their school, and M3 was picked. Here she is, in full Tiger getup, next to her good buddy P. We also had the distinct honor of hosting an Oscar Meyer Weinermobile this year! Oh, it makes me hearken back to my days in Madison. By the way, M4 asked me why it was called a "Weiner"mobile. I believe his buddy A refers to his private bits by this name, so M4 was understandably confused.

We went apple picking today. Yay, Fall! I forgot the camera, though. Dang.
