Thankful for activities

Sometimes the kids' activities can make you crazy, trying to schedule everything and make sure everyone gets where they need to be when they need to be there, BUT...
Sometimes it's nice to know that they have these opportunities.
I am grateful to all the teachers/instructors who help them accomplish their goals and desires.

Today, Grant went to a piano festival where he went into a room and played a couple of songs in front of two judges. It's not a competition, more of an assessment of your playing skills. He thinks that he did well, but we won't really know until he gets the judge's forms back next week.

While Julia and I took Grant to his piano thing, Dan and Natalie went to watch Kevin in a drill competition with his JROTC class.
They won 1st place in inspection, 3rd in ummmm.... whatever you call this that they are doing in the video, and 5th in armed drill.
Did I mention that Kevin was awarded cadet of the month recently?
We are very proud of him.
