Shelburne Farms Trip

What an amazing last meeting and final trip to Shelburne Farms.  A HUGE thank you to Rachel for showing us how to be farmers.  We had such a blast feeding and watering all of the animals.  We even had a chance to chase some baby sheep into a new pasture.  What a way to end the year!  Don't worry ladies we start up again next fall.  Can't wait to get everyone together again and start in on our "Journey Smoosh!"

Our Last Journey Meeting

We had our last journey meeting last Tuesday.  The girls have done such an amazing amount of work in such a short period of time.  We finished up our tulip award and we played "catch up" with some of our projects.  The girls took turns meeting with the leaders answering super secret questions for our end of the year project.  After our work was complete we had a birthday celebration and a dance party.  Tricia and I learned some new moves from some very talented dancers.

We are excited to see everyone this Saturday!  The girls stop me in the hall after school to give me the countdown.  We have a great ceremony planned, the girls will receive some fun patches and one of our ladies will bridge to Brownies!  See you all soon.  K
