There's a FABULOUS series of photos that my grandpa took of her in the front yard in all her various outfits, including one where she's sitting on the roof ridge... and one that SHE took of HIM "marching" with the baton. Makes me tear up a little, wishing that I'd have had the chance to get to know that man a little better!! Anyway, what a treasure!Vicki Knitorioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03342431774644974327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-61186680951899163802016-05-20T09:47:46.189-04:002016-05-20T09:47:46.189-04:00If only there were video of that performance!!!If only there were video of that performance!!!Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02428803651280506435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-5297697161507516652016-05-19T19:27:02.948-04:002016-05-19T19:27:02.948-04:00LOVE this! you were certainly talented and how won...LOVE this! you were certainly talented and how wonderful that your parents took photos ... that's a lot of band practice, huh?!?Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07047968915708927082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-1311564036863201392016-05-19T15:33:49.114-04:002016-05-19T15:33:49.114-04:00This is the best!

I played with a baton and learned to do some of the twirls, but was banned from the living room.

She showed me how to do a few things and gave me one of her used batons back in middle school - so I could drive my parents crazy trying "tricks" in the living room. (I think she had gold tassles on her boots, too, by the time we graduated.) Love your old photos -- and memories.Kymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01332895223302876006noreply@blogger.com
