First party of the party season....Flutes Unite!

 

picture boards for grad parties!!

Family and Friends .... through the years

 Choir in the middle, band on the sides!

I also made 12 batches of desserts (quadruple batches X 3 recipes)....sugar cookies, oreo balls and peanut butter balls....needed for 4 different gatherings  (They all need to be decorated or dipped a day or two before.)  Anna is hosting the flute party (22 kiddos +/- next week), the week after that Aunt Debbie and Grandma will visit, then Anna turns 18 (no specific party day of), then her grad party (when she is 18 years and 2 days old), then 2 weeks later she graduates and we will have a family party......oh my!  busy busy)

It may sound crazy but these two projects (the desserts and the picture boards) were the biggest tasks I had on my mental list.  All the other food will need to me made close to the time of the parties and I have all the other decorations in the basement ready to be set up.     

Prom 2025

Grace (below) is also in Anna's Girl Scout Troop and her co-leader of the flutes for marching band.

All 12th grade band kids (4 are flutes :0)  This group (plus and minus kiddos) have been going to Homecoming since they were freshman! (and Prom last year)

 

Disney photos

 

Anna has a Halloween costume for the Disney Movie "Monster's Inc"  They had a "secret santa" kind of gift exchange within her show choir group and her secret Santa got her matching ears....So thoughtful!

They had Show Choir practice on Halloween

                                    Anna and Lola have been friends since 1st grade I think!

If you double click on the link above and go to 1:09:45  you will get a great shot at Anna. (far right middle, so you don't have to search)

The show starts at 01:01:08 but I love the time slot I give above for seeing a close up of Anna! (and a happy song)

I love this photo:  Anna had a "sunbeam" on her....(this photo can help you find her in the video)

I think they had a great trip and parents and students had a welcome home surprise when their buses made it back to school.
