Today was the 8th grade band concert (with 4 6th graders - including Zane - thrown in because they needed more trombones). They're a pretty small band, but they were so good. They were especially good considering where they were a year and a half ago, before they got their new band director. (And also considering that there were at least 2 members of the band completely not playing. The trumpeter sitting on the end was barely even faking it - he'd kind of halfheartedly hold the trumpet up near his mouth and then kind of randomly push valves. It was most amusing to watch.) Katrina practices diligently, and she just loves playing the flute. And she loved it even when she had the terrible director, but she loves it So! Much! More! now.
