On the Saturday this picture was taken, Scott had been invited to audition from All-State Band! It was a HUGE privilege as an 8th grader to be invited. He told me right after his audition at a high school outside Columbia that he didn't think he made it because he didn't feel like things had gone well. He was right-he didn't make it but in the email when his band director told him that, he had really kind things to say about Scott and the progress he has made playing his tuba!
Ashley, Scott, and I had a lovely lunch at Burger King after the audition. Ryan was at Roper Mountain Science Center taking a Robotics merit badge class. I had to take this picture quickly before Scott completely polished off this TRIPLE burger and oreo milkshake!!! Playing the tuba is hungry work apparently-as is everything a nearly 14 year old boy is!
Scott did make the All County and Region Bands! These are the first 2 levels. This picture was from his school website and these students names were also on the school's digital sign out front. He gets to practice music with these 2 bands and then perform-looking forward to tomorrow night's County concert-know it will be great!
