Jaxon's marching band has an official photographer and he took a lot better pictures than I could. We just got a cd with thousands of pictures. Here are the ones that had Jaxon in them.
The CD had a bunch of pictures of practices. You know, they had 2 weeks of 12 hour days back in August. Plus they had 3-4 days a week of 3 hour practices after school started. So that is a lot of time practicing. So here are a few of those pictures.

night practices (with their hats)
A big part of marching bands is playing for the football games. Here are a few pictures of that.
Jaxon's head is always right in front of the tubas.
One of the football games was really really rainy.
There were a few practice/performances where they did their show but did not have to wear their uniform.
Here is the thing with Baritone players.... the baritone blocks their face. So here is a typical picture of Jaxon. There are hundreds of these on the CD. To get a good picture of a Baritone player- it needs to be from the side.
So- Here is the baritone section.
Jaxon!
The other cool thing about the CD is that there are "behind the scenes" pictures that I would never have seen. Here is the band waiting for their score. To see if they won.
Back rubs
Baritone bonding
Then we had some great pictures of the show. Remember that this is the State Champion Marching band this year! They worked hard and did a great job.
Their show was heaven and hell and purgatory. Here is Jaxon (back right) near the gates of hell.
There were some pictures of the tour that they took to southern California. Here is Jaxon on the Matterhorn ride at Disneyland.

...and there was even a picture of me! I was signing some kind of permission slips or something at the parents night.
Great Job Jaxon!
