Sounds of the Season Concert


Can you see the kids in the quality iPhone picture above?  
They're on the far left of the stage, greeting Santa!

Last night we took the kids to see the Air Force Band of the Pacific Christmas concert.  The band has had a long standing tradition of putting on a great Christmas program for Anchorage and it's been a family tradition that we've enjoyed taking in since I was a kid!  Over the years I've gone with my parents and cousins and grandparents, then with Matt, and now with my kids, (or Matt with the kids), and over the past few years we've been a couple of times with Grandma Karen and Grandpa Tim, too!  Yesterday it was Lincoln, Bentley, Jake, Viva, Grandma, Opa, Great-Grandma, and my Uncle Mark's family - and as a bonus we were even able to sit with some great family friends!  Where was Matt?  He and Evan stayed home as we decided the music was probably too loud for little baby ears.

Lincoln was entranced, and behaved very well:


The older three were going strong even at the end of our long evening:


It was a good time, and good holiday music.  We hear that it might be the last of these concerts as the Air Force Band of the Pacific might be disbanded.  If it is the last of the concerts, we will be sad.  It was a fun family tradition!
