Region update....

Just got in from work....Macie did well at her tryouts. She was 14th out of over 60 flute players trying out. Unfortunately they only take 12 for the region band. The first 6 made the symphonic band and the second 6 made the concert band. 14th is pretty darn good as far as I'm concerned. As far as I know....there were not any 7th graders who did any better than she did. She said the people who made it were all 8th graders. I'm sorry she did not make the band but I'm proud of her for trying out and doing so well. Now just imagine how good she could be if she actually spent some time practicing. She will only practice if we remind her and then it is never more than 30 min or so. Oh well, she has NONE of her mother' s and father's competitive spirit.

I was praying and thinking of her today. I am so proud of her too. To go that far and only be a 7th grader....well look out next year cause I am betting on her to knock the socks off of them. Way to go sweet girl! Good job today.
