Saturday School

Emma, Gracie and I have spent many Saturday morning working with ESL children at a local elementary school. This Saturday was the last one of the year so we went to the park and...

ate popsickles

Swang on swing sets








And blew big bubbles!













The kids are so loving and adorable, but because of budget cuts the Saturday school program may not be able to happen next year! What can we do to stop that from happening?

sometimes we like to sing

Another spectacular thing about That Group of Girls is that 5/6 of us like to sing- the only one who doesn't is Emma, even though she was in Middle School chorus. The only activities she likes to partake in are actually wearing the DNA necklace we made out of our own cheek cells in biology today, selling water bottles, and wearing suggestive short skirts and tall socks. Emma remains a mystery, whereas the rest of us appear in this video from the Spring Concert. And no matter what any of us say, we will always secretly love Mixed Review.

Elsewhere, Continued

Speaking of Elsewhere, it's pretty much our default place to hang out when we're downtown without any plans. I mean, there's always something to do there:

Reading interesting new books...


....chilling in secret aquariums...


...and generally reveling in its awesomeness.

The Upper Part of Elsewhere

On Friday night, Jenna, Gracie, and I went to Elsewhere, an artists' collaborative downtown. Jenna and I had never been there before, and it was quite an experience.

Have you ever looked to see what kind of crazy foods are in international grocery stores? Here are a few we found.
