1st of all I missed you all a whole bunches!! I think I even had Dts, from SoulCast . Just good things and some questions...  Don't have Pictures of Angelas Prom down loaded but hope to soon.  She had her last Band Concert with solo (Unchained Melody ) on trumpet part...She was awesome!!!!  Then the awards she was called up 5 times I think (can't remember)  "MOST IMPROVED" "MOST OUTSTANDING"  AND THEN THE "BAND SCHOLARSHIP" Whoo hooo All of her class was hoootin for her and the Band director Commented on how this young lady has given everything to support the band. She is Drum Major and was on the flag team but gave it up because they needed another trumpet player (only had one) and even though she didn't play that instrument at the time she did it with every thing she had and took them to get all 1's in competition (not done since 97) !  Then a young man dressed in a marine uniform came up to give her an award never given to a student in that school before! I 'm not sure what it all means but here is what it says...
        THE "SEMPER FIDELIS" AWARD
           FOR MUSICAL EXCELLENCE
   
                            Presented to
         Angela ______________
  by the United States Marines Youth Foundation Inc.
         and the Marine Corps League
       In Recognition of Diligence,
Dedication and Musical Excellence as a Performing
High School Bandsman and Soloist.

Then it has all the seals and emblems on it!!!! I have never heard of it before but we are sure proud! anyone else know of this?

    Wow, that is all fantastic!  I know you are a proud mama!  Hope to see the prom pics if you post them.  I didn't know the Marines had a youth foundation, but nice to know.  I do know that Semper FI is a Marine, what would you call it?  Not their "logo"--someone make this make sense.  Can't think of the word...
