Daddy/Daughter Dance 4-25-09

Tonight we went to the Daddy/Daughter Dance at St. Vincent's. It was so much fun.

My mom did my hair. Here is a picture of what I looked like from the front and the back.

My dad got me a corsage just like last year. It was a Spring Corsage to match the outdoors.

Here is a picture of my dad and I when we arrived at the Masquerade Ball.

We made masks as a craft project. Aren't our mask pretty.

We also ate and danced for a long time. Here I am dancing the YMCA.

We had so much fun! I cannot wait until next year. What will the theme be?

Christian Conduct Award (4-21-09)

It was really nice for me since both my parents were there when my name was called out for Christian Conduct for the 3rd Quarter. I hope I can continue earning these since I have received one ever since Kindergarten.

Date with the Mad Matter

I went to a Girl Scout event with my mom on April Fool's Day. It was called the Mad Matter Surprise Event. When we arrived we had to choose what items of food we wanted to eat for each of our 4 courses. The only problem was that we had no clue what the food was since the items on the menu were Tea Party in the Sky and other silly names like that one.

This is my mom and I eating our 1st course which was: meatballs, ranch dressing, applesauce, and cheese. We had to eat that or at least try to eat it otherwise we could not get our 2nd course. By the way we had no utensils until we had order them oon our secret menu. The rest of the night was very similar. Different combinations of foods that we had chosen but had no clue since we were not given a real menu.

My troop leader , Mrs. Porter, was at this event. She was our server. My mom and I had a blast! But we sure had stomachaches afterwards since eating all those items of food at different times sure does a number on your tummy.

Sock Hop 11-20-08

I went to a Sock Hop that you danced and sang in with my Girl Scout Troop!

Rebecca is the girl that is next to me. We are BFFs and danced together all night. She let me borrow the poodle-skirt that I am wearing.

Maddie P. and I are dancing together and having so much fun!

The whole Sock Hop did "The Bunny Hop" dance and that got me so tired that I went to get some ice cream.

I had so much fun in the Sock Hop that I want to do it next year!

Here is a short video from the Sock Hop.

Samaritan's Purse Project for Girl Scouts

Last Girl Scout meeting I made boxes that are being sent to Africa, Asia, and Russia.They were hard work, but I had fun doing them because I know that whoever got my box that they would love every little bit of it! I also did jobs around the house to make $20.00 to be able to buy stuff to put in my box.

I went shopping on Wednesday the 12th of November. I bought a lot of fun and playful things they might need in life that they do not have like soap and toothbrushes. I also had fun buying all of these things. I hope the family that gets my box will love what I bought them.

All Soul's Day Mass

Here is a video of me introducing St. Martha plus also doing the intentions at church along with my 5th grade friends Rebecca and Danny. We are at St. Thomas More for the Children's Mass.

Saint Anastasia Report

I had to write a one page report on my favorite saint this week. I choose St. Anastasia because I am named after her. There is not a lot of stuff written on her that is why she was so hard to write about. But I learned many important facts, such as, the Romans at first were not Christian. They killed many people that were Christians in very sad ways. St. Anastasia was a Christian and helped Christain martyrs that were in prison. She had great faith in Christ and never gave up her beliefs even when she was being burned to death. My saint's feast day is December 25th. Before December 25th was celebrated as Christ's birth it was used to honor St. Anastasia. She is still recognized in the 2nd Mass on Christmas Day. She is also mentioned in the Canon of the Catholic Mass. I hope that we can go to the 2nd Mass this year for Christmas to celebrate my favorite saint's feast day.
