Girl Scout Bridging Ceremony 2012

At the end of the school year Lillie had her Girl Scout bridging ceremony. It's where you move from being a daisy to a brownie, or a brownie to a junior, etc. Lillie didn't technically "bridge". 2nd and 3rd graders are brownies but she was the only girl in her troop not moving up so her troop leader bought her a new sash to fill up next year. 
Lillie just started Girl Scouts at the beginning of 2nd grade, but she has loved it! Of all the extra-curricular activities that she has tried this is the only one that has stuck. She has a great troop leader and has really gotten close with all the girls in her troop. 
Here they are saying the girl scout code:

All of Lillie's activity patches. The patches that she receives for passing off things with her troop are on the front but the back is for individual achievements.

The girls made life size artwork of themselves. 
What a fun year. We can't wait for Girl Scout camp in August!

Memorial Day BBQ

Our friends the Hardman's invited us over to their house for a backyard water party and BBQ. Our entire family had a great time visiting and playing with friends. Thank you for hosting Rulon and Lori!
