Going Through Life One Post at a Time
When it is cap and gown and graduation announcement purchase day and your baby comes home with a Class of 2026 tassel, it suddenly seems too real. It was real when we had to buy them for Laura, but we still had John at home. Now, it is really real. He is the baby. Time feels like a thief today.
Andy went to St. Louis to see the Chicago Blackhawks play the St. Louis Blues with one of his fraternity brothers. He actually got to see the Blackhawks win 8-3!
The time has come to purchase a cap and gown for John. We are already two months into his Senior year.
I love when Laura sends links to the different SEMO Marching Band photo albums.
We do not get to see her march that much, so these photos help just a little.
Laura is definitely in college. Her dinner consisted of a chicken parmesan sandwich, mozzarella sticks, a Nestle Crunch candy bar, and juice from the full container.
It was a long day of marching band! It started with Trumpet section breakfast at 5:15 am at our house.
Then, the rest of us got ready and left about 9:00 am for Fort Zumwalt North High School. It was especially fun because our niece, Addyson, is in town for the weekend too!
We watched a lot of marching between both the preliminary performances and the finals performances.
Our favorite marching band worked so hard all day and nearly took first place, but they came up just short by .2 points. However, we will take it because they raised their scores from their preliminary performance by 2.6 points!
Win or lose, we love our Hickman High School Marching Band. Congratulations to all the kids on a great day of performances!
It was Friday Night Lights with minor tweaks to the marching band’s show and another win (63-37) for the Hickman football team. We are Hickman!
