He’s a Graduate

Yes, I know it’s been a really long time since I’ve posted. I keep Facebook more up to date and I just haven’t had time to post here too. I’ve recently found some old acquaintances via other sites than FB though and I thought I should maybe put up a new post with current happenings here.

The biggest event recently in our house was Bryce graduating from Vista Ridge High School on May 24, 2014. He plans to attend UCCS here in the Springs this fall.

Our end of the school year activities consisted of quite a few music concerts. All three older kids  are in concert band, and Bryce and Elizabeth also play in jazz band. Elizabeth plays the baritone sax in jazz band and we like to tease her that it is almost as big as she is. In the photo below L to R: Bryce, Elizabeth and Carissa

The band plays live music during graduation for our school, and this was I think the first time in all 4 years of high school that I could actually see all 3 kids faces while they played in band since graduation took place in the World Arena. Usually Bryce and Elizabeth are hidden behind rows of other kids.

We are getting ready for the big annual dance recital in just a couple of days. Here are a few ‘preview’ photos. I missed getting Beth and Carissa’s tap group somehow, so I will have to make sure I get photos at dress rehearsal for those numbers!
