Tree Planting for MLK Day

As many of you may have heard Lola has recently become a Brownie!  So her troop planted trees at the Southlawn Cemetary in Atlanta.  This cementary was the original resting place of Dr. Martin Luther King. He was laid to rest here prior to the building of the King Center.  His parents are still buried here.  Lola and her troop learned quite a bit about tree roots, soil and water.

 

A Pretty Girl on the Piano

Auntie Pat presented Lola with a gorgeous dress which reminded her of a Nutcracker Angel.  It was perfect for the Christmas recital.  Lola played well and looked beautiful.  Lola said she felt like a Princess.

Lola and the Pink Pig

We were invited on a Girl Scout outing with Brownie troop 459.  The girls decided they wanted to ride the Pink Pig at Macys for their holiday get together.  Lola really enjoyed hanging out with the girls and will be joining the troop in January.  So get your orders ready to order Girl Scout Cookies.

 

Nutcracker Angel

Wow!  Lola you continue to amaze me. We loved watching Lola portray and angel with the Georgia Ballet.  Mommy is so proud! 

Giving back

We had the opportunity to give back to our community the week of Thanksgiving.  We arranged lunches for neighborhood children who were home from school and unable to get school lunches.  Lola did a great job assembling lunches and distributing them.
