Catching up, one band concert at a time

A couple weeks ago, Matt participated in his first band concert as a trombonist. I have a couple of pictures to share from the concert. The band did well for their first time ever playing together as a large group in front of an audience.

Matt is actually playing in this picture, which I have labeled.

And here's what he does when he is not playing:
He fiddles around, mooshing his face into the trombone slide. He can't just sit and listen. He was pressing his eyeball up against the circular metal thing. I don't know why, and when I asked him about it, he didn't know why either.

oh man! I used to do that too! My favorite trombone pass-time was resting the bridge of my nose around the top curve of the instrument - it was a perfect fit. I'm confident, though, that Matt will do much more actual playing of the trombone than I ever did...

Matt is just Matt, isn't he? Mike and Annie are the same way. They couldn't sit still to save their lives. Matt is really looking more grown up these days though.
