The Beginning and the End, School Year 2014-2015

Elise and Anja on the first day of the school year, 4th grade and 1st grade...

And on the last day...


End of the School Year Craziness

The end of the school year brings a rush of activity for the girls:  field trips and special parties at school, awards and concerts.  I think in the last week there was something going on every day for at least one of them.

Elise had her final concert of the year for Parkside Singers, performing at 5th grade graduation.


Both Elise and Anja had parties in class where awards were given out.

Elise received the Citizenship Award and
Musical Excellence for her class, as well as the
Laffy Taffy award.  This is Elise with
her teacher, Ms. Harper
Anja's teacher, Mr. Heil, handing out awards.
Anja and Mr. Heil, "the best teacher ever."
The Girl Scouts wrapped-up the year with a picnic and awards night.
Elise earned patches for her first year as a Junior.
Anja finished her second year as a Daisy and bridged to Brownies.
I am the co-leader of the Daisies, so I got to give Anja her patch.
