Mardi Grazie

Last night the boys and I went to Andrew's band fundraiser, Mardi Grazie. Charles stayed home because of the extreme pinkeye we have been passing around the family all week. They had a good lasagna dinner and we got to hear Andrew play his bass with the jazz band. Uncle Bob donated some of his beautiful lathe-turned bowls for the silent auction. After the dinner and auction they had a concert in the auditorium. By the time we got there it was standing room only - they brought in some extra chairs so we were able to sit on the front row. But just before they started playing the director said they were recording the concert so to please be as quiet as possible. Uh, here I am with a 3-year old and a baby, both way past their bedtimes, five feet from the microphones! We got to hear one song and then Zachary announced, loudly, that he was tired of sitting there. Luckily it was during the appause but we bugged out of there. I'm sure Andrew's band was great!
