Holiday Concert

Fifth and Sixth Grade – Band, Orchestra and Chorus

Tuesday, December 11

 

When I got there Chris said she was surprised that it was so full when she arrived at 6:30 that we had to sit on the balcony.

 

 

I was glad that I had my long lens (55 – 300) along.

 

 

I was also quite pleased with my new Nikon D7000. These photos were all taken without flash.

 

When taking pictures of the Jazz Rock Band, I was surprised to see my brother’s grandson Andrew (royal blue).

 

 

This is why I was there – to see our granddaughter Gloria (in pink) singing in the chorus.

 

 

 

 

The girls are smiling because…

 

 

…the boys were doing turkey movements when singing Turkeys United.

 

 

I liked the shadows as the Jazz Rock Band played while the chorus left the room and the band came on stage.

 

 

While using my camera as binoculars, I found Charlotte (left) daughter of friends from our church – Jerry and Jenny.

 

 

 

 

Then I found Elsie in percussion (red & black dress) daughter of friends Kraig and Janet – also from our church.

 

 

The Christmas Stomp was a cute song played on upside down trash cans…

 

 

…and the lids.

 

 

There was also lots of clapping.

 

 

 The directors – Sara (chorus), Shenna (orchestra – yes, she is pregnant), and James (band).

 

 

Time for photos of Gloria – these by her mom.

 

 

 

 

   

Our pretty Gloria

Thanks for inviting us, Gloria
