See Ya Next Year!

Our book club is taking a seriously long break. The girls are so busy with school, sports, young women, band, and so many activities that it just hasn't worked out for us to get together. Maybe we'll try again next year.

Most likely we will be forming a new group with the little girls turning eight next year. The new batch of Activity Day girls.

We will keep you posted on dates and times.

Fairest

Our book for March was Fairest. It was so interesting to see the parallels with Snow White. There was the mirror, the castle, the prince, and many others. Melissa hosted it and made up a gorgeous table where a feast was served with many items from the book. We had root veggies, just like the gnomes, and we had crusty french bread, fruit, and an amazing chocolate cake.
Everyone enjoyed the story and the coming of age book about a girl trying to find her place in life and learning who she is and who she can become if she only believes in herself.

The BFG (Big Friendly Giant)




The girls had a blast discussing the BFG and eating an awesome breakfast. The girls made their monthly fruit salad. Everything was yummy. Thanks Sophie!
