A tough decision

Like I had mentioned earlier in the school year,McKay was playing the cello in advanced orchestra and the violin in chamber orchestra.

Here are some pictures of her final concert.

She was always first chair in orchestra until we went to Kansas and chair placement tests were that weekend.  She lost her first chair due to absence.  She ended the year as second violin in first Violins.  This was a big accomplishment for her.

Her teacher was amazing!  I always enjoyed watching them play.

 So then it was time to pick just one instrument to play in the High School Orchestra.  There was no way that she could play both and get all the credits she needs.  She struggled for weeks trying to decide what to play.

The cello won. 

(Here is a picture of McKay and some of her ork dorks and band geeks, as she would say.  They are also some of her running buddies.)
