And The Band Marches On!!!

Steven's marching band had semi-state competion on Saturday and they did well- 6th place, so on they go to State next Saturday.  The kids will be getting an overnight trip out of the deal, and they are SO excited.  They got back to town around 11:30 PM and the Police and Fire Departments met them outside the city limits and gave them an escourt through town (with sirens).  The band kids were yelling out the open bus windows.....  Now, you have to remember we live in a tiny town, and the streets roll up at 6 PM, so unfortunately, no one was up to see it.  They said no lights even came on in houses for people to be waking up and looking out the windows.  Oh well.  We will have to figure something out when they come home from state - it should be an earlier return time.
