Oh and speaking of marching band and things that make me happy--
The Cedar Park High School marching band just won the Texas 5A state championship! They absolutely blew the doors off the competition this year. This is now 7 times in a row, and 9 total, both of which are Texas state records.
I haul equipment on and off the trucks, and on and off the field, so I take just a little bit of individual pride in the results. But it's 99.9999% the effort of the students, and the leadership of the directors. It's a really fantastic organization and I'm delighted my kids got to be a part of it.
