all through high school, drew, alex, heather and i made a point to come to the swing concert at symphony on the prairie every year so we could dance. in fact, the very first year we came, it poured rain the entire time but the band kept playing so we kept dancing! but marriages & moves have spread us further than we'd like and we're not able to go these concerts together anymore:p
this year, marmee wanted our whole family to do one last thing together before johann and i move so as the storm clouds rolled in, we loaded up the van with our large crew and headed to hear the glenn miller orchestra. we arrived to find the gates closed due to impending rain so we walked back and had a picnic off the back of johann's car. our friends the scheurich's joined us and then the gates opened just in time for the concert! the entire family + our cousins & friends who were in town hung out on the dance floor all evening just swingin' and swayin' and it was perfect! i'm so thankful for opportunities to make memories like this with my family! and daggummit, am i ever going to miss them once i move.
