Ribbon Cutting Ceremony



This afternoon was the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new elementary school that our children attend. Since our neighborhood worked very hard to lobby for this school, we felt like we needed to show up to celebrate. There was a huge crowd, many were from our neighborhood.

All of the fifth-graders formed a choir for the ceremony. Aylee was on the front row of the choir at the very end of her row. After their song, we said the Pledge of Allegiance and then they cut the ribbon. Following the ceremony, we all went to the playground area and had hot dogs and chips as a big community picnic.

It was fun to sit and visit with all of our neighbors and friends. The kids had a great time visiting and play on the playground also.

The following is a small video clip of Aylee with the fifth grade choir.
