ONE OF MY CUTE BABY BOYS HAS A DAUGHTER GRADUATING FROM HIGH SCHOOL?? HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN??

My favorite oldest Grand-daughter is a member of the Allegiance Color Guard from Dundee, Illinois.  Two of my friends and I traveled to LaPorte, Indiana to see them perform in a regional meet.  My friends and I were so IMPRESSED with all the performances and in awe of the hard work that went into the performances.

I was the drum-majorette in my senior year in high school.  My friend from high school, Sylvia, and I were majorettes all through school and also performed in a Corp.  We twirled batons not rifles or flags.  It was such a thrill for me to see my Grand-daughter twirl her rifle.  My daughter never had any interest in twirling so watching my Grand-daughter was extra special.

 The Guard spends their weekends in a gym when they have a meet.  I sat down on Haley's blow-up bed.  With my new knees, it took two people to get me up off the bed! 

 Big hair is part of their costume look.

 I am glad I don't have to get all that teasing out of my hair.  We did that back in the 1970's.

 Face painting is important to their costume.

 Haley likes to stick-out her tongue.

 Oh, oh, face paint of her foot and on the floor.

Face painted.

 Costume complete so it is on to the show.

 Grandpa Tom would have gotten a better picture of their show, but I did the best my little point and shoot camera could do.

  Fantastic show, wish my camera could do it justice.
