Holiday Happenings




Big day yesterday-filled with the sounds of the season! My Daisy Girl Scout Troop went to a retirement home aka "where old people, older than you mom, live". We had 11 first graders in their blue girl scout vests carrying giant Amaryllis plants we started from bulbs about 1 month ago. The girls gave the residents the flowers then sang to them for about 30 minutes! The school first grade holiday program was that night so they had a list of 7-8 songs ready along with dance moves and hand motions. The residents LOVED it and so did the girls. M said it was the best day ever!
Later that night we headed back up to school for the holiday program. The kids looked so cute in their reindeer shirts made from their foot and hand prints! They sang their little hearts out! It was a wonderful performance and really made me feel the holiday spirit!
