We forgot to have a concert!

When school started in August, C-dog had to choose between the dance/theater/video production class group or band for the year. He really wanted to do video production, but there was no way he was going to do dance! So it was band. He picked the trumpet because it was small and only has three valves. (he thought it would be easy, Ha!)

He's been playing trumpet for 4 months now. The first few months were pretty rough, but he persevered and in the last couple of weeks, he's starting to sound pretty good.

He was really upset that we forgot to have a concert for the cousins who were just here (more about the many visitors soon). So I agreed to post a video for them to watch of him "in concert". Enjoy!

Very nice for only being at it such a short time. I'm glad to see the family musical tradition continue. Keep it up!

That is true. We didn't get to listen to a concert when we were there. You sound great and we look forward to hearing you live next time we visit!

Wow! We are so impressed that you could be so good after just a few months. Keep up the good work.

Tanner says "I want a trumpet too."
Jaxon says, "Thanks for playing the trumpet- it was cool."

Sorry it took forever for me to remember to get the kids to watch this,

I love it Connor! Good job.
