Orchestra Trip to San Francisco

For Advanced orchestra Baylee got to go to San Francisco. We left the middle school at 4:30 Thursday morning. No one was happy enough to take pictures that early!


This was Baylee and her friends all "spiffied up" for the San Francisco Symphony Thursday night




Because it had been such a long bus ride, the driver's couldn't take us to the symphony. So we got to ride the subway.































This was Bay on a trolley car. We only had about 2 1/2 hours in downtown S.F. so we didn't have time to ride one. But she sure looked cute standing on it :)









Of course we had the famous sour dough bread!

























Her orchestra went to competition on Friday night. They were unbelievably good!
















And, of course, Baylee was gorgeous!









On Saturday before we came home we went to Great America Theme Park. They had a 156 foot free fall. For some reason I decided it would be a good idea to show my daughter that it's good to do things that scare the pants of you!!! Pretty much the scariest thing I have ever done! But, after I got off Bay asked if she could do it too because she couldn't let me be more brave that her. So I guess it was worth it :)













At the awards ceremony our orchestra won 1st place in their division, but also won Best Overall Orchestra out of all the orchestras in every division! So proud of these kids!
