It was so busy getting my daughter through the end of school year that I haven't had a chance to post until things have finally calmed down somewhat. I'd like to catch up on our June activities.
Before Holly finished third grade, she performed in five Ella Marie ballet dance recitals. It was a very busy but enjoyable weekend. On the last night, she was called up on stage for having completed her fifth year of dance. The following week, she received her fifth-year trophy.
The day after school ended, Holly and her girl scout troop had a bridging ceremony as they moved up from Brownies to Juniors. The ceremony took place at Old Westbury Gardens and was followed by a picnic and activity. It was a beautiful day, and Holly was also able to participate in the Midsummer fairy hunt later that evening.
Also, during this time, we adopted another cat - my mom's siamese, Oliver. He and Holly had always gotten along well, and she was thrilled to add him to the family. Although Stripey was a bit upset initially, he has come to accept Oliver as an older "brother" even though they still occasionally have some brotherly spats.
