The main reason we came out to California was to see Koa perform with the Blue Devils at the Rose Bowl. We hadn’t seen the band at this venue before, and this was our last opportunity to do so. In the end, eight of us went to cheer him on! It was a lot of fun, and of course, getting to see my son for the first time in two months was really special. 😊
It’s hard to believe how quickly time flies. Our oldest son, Bay, has officially finished school! His program was a six-year commitment, and it feels like just yesterday we were dropping him off on campus for the first time. Where did the time go? Wow!
Bay headed back to school today, making Mariko and me empty-nesters for the next few months! With Koa in California until April, it’s just the two of us for about three months. Missing both of the kids already!
Koa is back with the Blue Devils this summer, and they recently performed at the DCI Southwestern Championships. It was great to see him again after he’s been on the road since the end of May. By the way, their show this year is amazing!
I dropped my youngest son off at the airport today. He’ll be spending the summer on tour with the Blue Devils DCI drum corp, competing around the country. He was with them last year too, and had a blast. I hope he enjoys himself as much as he did last summer! 頑張って！
