Last Saturday was a very full day with the RHS Marching Band Festival. There were thousands of people who descended on our high school and downtown area. My mom and I put in our shift at the volunteer table, and then we left before all of the really fun stuff started. By watching social media, we were able to keep track of the 22+ bands who played, and then I was able to pick up Ava once things eased up with the parking situation. It seems like it was a really great night, and everyone was impressed with how well our event was managed. Way to go, band parents!
The rest of the week is a blur with everything that we had scheduled. There was parent orientation at RHS, swimming, dinner with friends, marching band rehearsals, a football game, school, work, etc. It was non-stop! In fact, it was so busy I didn't even take any fun pictures.
I'm hopeful that the coming week is a little more manageable, and we all get a chance to relax a bit. On Friday night, we were all home for dinner, and we even ended up watching a movie together. It's been a really long time since we've been able to do that, and it was wonderful! Even though Scott and I slept through parts of the movie, we still loved being with our kids, in our cozy home space.
If the weather holds, we're going to try to visit our friend's apple orchard tomorrow, and quietly celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary. More to come on if we are successful!
