All State Music


Amy successfully auditioned for All-State Music, and I was able to attend her concert in Bismarck. The quality of the music was some of the best you would hear anywhere. Here are Amy and two of her friends during a break between concerts.
The kids from Amy's school who attended, with their music teacher.

The stained glass makes a beautiful backdrop (when you have such powerful subjects:), and oh to be a JJ...catching a good nap on a hard floor, oblivious to big sister about to step on her...(just kidding!)
