My Little Drummer Boy

My Drummer Boy is not so little anymore.  13-years-old and he passed his dad and me up in height this year!

Here he is in his kilt.  He's a member of the Glasgow Scottie Band and the band wears kilts for our home band competition, football games, parades, and concerts.





Here he is in the middle on Bass 1 (or as I like to call it - the Baby Bass!)  This is the marching band competition uniforms.  The Musselburgh (burgh is pronounce "boro") tartan is one that we have adopted.  You can see hints of it on the competition uniforms.  Musselburgh is a city just outside of Edinburgh, Scotland.





As soon as I spied the Musical Season Bundle, I knew I had to have it!  We are a musical family, so you will never see this bundle in a retired pile.  I just LOVE it!
