It was Ashley's first time and Jessica's second time competing at this event. They both did a fabulous job! Ashley's team received bronze ribbons and were the top bronze 1st level team. Jessica's team received silver ribbons.
We found them new dance skirts and the loved them because they twirl so much.
I got the chance to go to Pennsylvania for the first time and hang out with some Amazing Pampered Chef Directors. Here I am with Robin, Cynthia & Shelly. It was a quick trip but I got some fabulous training.
We didn't have much time for sight seeing, but one night we did make it over to Valley Forge before it got too dark. It is always humbling to be at history sites like this one.
And the month ended with the most important celebration of the month -- Ashley's Birthday. She graduated to two digits and is now 10!
She is so hip she didn't want a cake, she wanted cupcakes at her party. Luckily Pampered Chef just came out with the perfect stand to display them with!
All the girls at the party managed to find the apple tree. And this was its last official picture. It was removed from the backyard about a week after this was taken. No more diseased apples to pick up this summer!
The girls had fun decorating cupcakes themselves. There was a contest in the end to see who could get the most frosting on her cupcake, yikes.
Ashley is our social butterfly and she loved having all her friends over. We Love You Ashley!
