Koa and The Blue Devils at the Rose Bowl
Koa started his DCI career with a nice show at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. We watched the livestream from the comfort of our living room and enjoyed the show very much!
For the past four years we have gone to see his high school marching band perform, but the DCI squad is a whole other level! I can’t wait to see them perform live later this summer. It should be awesome.

High School Graduate
Today our youngest graduated from high school. It was a very nice ceremony, and we were very proud because our son is the student body president, and gave the welcoming remarks and introductions, then sat on stage. Amazing!
Next year, he’s off to college so our house will be quiet… We’ll see how that feels. 😄
Final Percussion Concert
We saw Koa’s final percussion concert tonight. He has been part of the percussion section and with the same percussion director since middle school, so this final concert was a big one.
It’s always a tear-filled speech from the director, who every year has to say goodbye to the seniors, so the evening was filled with a whole range of emotions: laughter at seeing the slideshow and photos, awe at listening to the amazing music, and sadness hearing the farewell speeches.
What a night!
Coming to a Close
We went to listen to Koa’s high school band perform this evening. It will be one of the last times listening to him in a concert setting since he will be graduating soon. I’ve enjoyed going to both my sons’ concerts for several years now, so I’m a bit sad that it is ending 😢, but time marches on.
