PLD Band #1

Okay, I know I haven't written in a long time, It was a crazy year.


The Band won the 5A KY state championship







This is Kenny, Kristina and I on papa John's Field right after they got their medals. all the parents rushed onto the field and the kids were yelling, dancing, crying and screaming! It was awesome!







and then went on to win the Murfreesboro Contest of Champions the next week.












The Percussion was fantastic and crazy!

This Marching season was unforgetable. I couldn't have been more proud to be assosiated to a group of such fantastic kids.

memories

I spent yesterday and last night watching my daughter in her first band contest. I was sitting in the stands and listening to the drum cadence as the band took the feild. It sent a shiver up my spine and my mind raced back to all the times I marched on the feild in high school....I swear the butterflies started and I dont think I took a breath until the music started. I was sitting next to my Mom and Dad and now I know how they felt when they watched me and my sister. It is a mix of pride and sick to your stomach until it is over and then you are so happy you just can't even describe the feeling. I looked over at Mom/Gran and she had tears running down her checks, I guess memories don't have an age limit.

later that night PLD won Grand Champion, best music, best percussion, best visual. ( I remember that feeling as well!)

On another note my son has now moved to the dark side! he has gotten a job as an umpire. He has his first game on Tuesday. He is trying on all the equipement right now and looks so grown up. I can't believe in teo years he will be in college.

I will put some pictures up of the sone.

GO DAWGS!


Dunbar Band takes the feild! The 2007-2008 Dunbar Band had it's first performance at the PLD/Scott county game on Sept. 7. when they marched on the field it took me back to when i marched for Tates creek many years ago. I am so glad my daughter is geeting to be part of the band at Dunbar high school. I pray she has as great an experience as I had.

She is playing cymbals and Synth in the Pit.
there are 6 "Pit Princesses!"

I will try to get better pictures of them. this is at thier Pit Sit" after the game ( there are also 4 guys but who wants them in a picture!)
