Trip to DC
Kaleb sent in an audition tape to the OAKE National Music Conference. He was one of 150 young adults who made it (out of 500 + applicants!). That meant that we got to spend 6 days with him in our nation's capital! He received his music in December and had to have it all memorized and pitched by our arrival in March. We planned on flying out on a Tuesday and meeting him in DC. Our weather was beautiful and we had no problems leaving Tucson. Kaleb, however, had a cancelled flight directly out of RS due to weather. He got a later flight and made it to DC that evening at 9:45.
We did a lot of site seeing...saw all the important monuments.
The concert was phenomenal. Constitional Hall was beautiful. It was amazing to see young adults from all over the nation, come together and perform with such precision. It was an honor to be there listening.
We are very proud of our young man.

Wow!! I'm so impressed! I always loved to go to Chelsey's HS concerts. How amazing to be in DC for Kaleb's concert! Looks great on a college application too.
