A Friday Drumline Gig

Topeka kicked off their "United Way" campaign today, so Topeka High Drumline had two different performances. They started out at the capital. Here they are in the shade warming up.

This one is done....time to pack up and off they go!


Ryan pulls the trailer with the equipment, but what's with the kids riding in the back of the truck???? Oh, my word, and it's downtown Topeka, no less!

Next stop was at the Shawnee County Courthouse. In case you haven't spotted Ryan yet, he is the snare player in the center.


Now this pictures needs an explanation! At the courthouse they had a pen of goats to pet and also a trailer with goats that were there to be milked. Lisa thought this should be an experience for Joshua. He touched "it" once, but then you can see by the expression on his face he's thinking, "What in the world......!" Joshua was given a new box of crayons and coloring sheets when he was done, but it would have taken more than crayons for me to participate.

I Need to Update My Post Before I Forget How!

Joshua showing off his new backpack to take to Sunday School. He gets to go to a new class in a new room in a different building!!

Heading out to the shop to see what's happenin' !

Ryan is putting on a new pulley on the lawn mower deck....and he wasn't the one that broke it!

Joshua is just pretending! Believe me, the forkflift is not running or Joshua wouldn't be sitting there with a smile on it face.

One last picture before going into the house for the night.
