Ava’s first music program

This year has brought many firsts, and I have to admit, I’m starting to feel like a bit of a pro at this elementary school business. Good thing, because there’s about 12 years of it still ahead of us.

I will say, though, our first music program brought a few additional lessons, including “Get there REALLY early, or sit in the back.” I tried to stand to snap a few photos, but Bryan kept saying, “DOWN IN FRONT” in his best stage whisper. So with apologies for the distance and resulting lack of focus, here are a few images of Ava’s first grade choral program from last night, built around a clever gardening theme.

Ava is under the hoop, in the front row, just a tad to the right.

From the “Bumblebee” song. (Actual excerpt: “I’m throwing up my baby bumblebee, won’t my mommy be so proud of me?”)

As I noted on Facebook—one school music program down, 457 to go!
