Nic Makes the News

A newscrew from WJZ Channel 13 came to Longfellow to interview the kids and teachers about the Technology video. Nic had two video/sound bites in the story. I think it's very cool!

Last Day of Fall Soccer

We're kinda glad soccer is over for this season. Two games today--they won the first 6-0, and tied the second 1-1. That's an OK way to end the season.

Technology!

Nic & Katie helped their school make a video to try to win $30,000 worth of technology stuff. Nic has a voiceover solo. It starts at "If we got gear from Interwrite..." and you'll see both N&K throughout the video.

Their entry is below. Click on Technology! or on the picture above.

Lego Santa

There's a new Lego Store in Arundel Mills Mall. We went to the grand opening on Saturday.

Wilde Lake HS Regional String Festival

Katie & Nic were part of a combined strings concert Tuesday night. Kids from Longfellow Elementary, Bryant Woods Elementary, Clemens Crossing Elementary, Harpers Choice Middle, Wilde Lake Middle, and Wilde Lake High schools played a lovely concert. I took video of just the songs my kids were a part of. They played with all the other elementary schools for the first two numbers, the MS students played 2 songs, the HS students played 2 songs, and then everybody played the final number.

Happy Strings!

Warming up beforehand.

Scales in the warm-up room.

Excited to go play!

Dr. Shumway, the HS music director, introduces the evening.
