Holiday Concert was Funny

We ate dinner at Mom and Dad's house early and come back home to get ready for the concert. After convincing Dan he could not wear anything but a white tee shirt under his dress shirt, I ironed it and his pants real quick and off we went. When we were a block away Joe asked Dan something which made him remember that his drumsticks were still home. We came back and still made it to the concert on time.

We sat through the very long orchestra, then came the band. There are about 40 drummers/percussionists so I was giggling during the one song where there were kids playing cow bells and whistles. Then came the next song where Daniel was playing these jingle bells. Serves me right for laughing at those other kids. Right before that song, he came out and dropped his drumsticks. We thought it was really funny because they echoed. We saw him bend down to get them, but what we did not see was he didn't get them because they had fallen into the stage! He borrowed his friends sticks and seemed to do very well. If I had know that was going to happen I wouldn't have gone back home to get them! As of last night they are still under the stage! His father is going to go by and get them for him!

All this made for a very long three hours and I came home totally exhaused!
