End of the Frontier

We have come to the last of the Prairie School Days and there were several more fun and exciting events that I wanted to share on here...

The girls went back to the local nursing home at which they had previously sang during the Christmas season.  This time they put on a fashion show.  To add some variety the girls split into groups to model colonial styles, prairie styles and Civil War styles.  Civil War era dresses were divided into Civil War girls' fashions and Civil War ladies' fashions...

Each girl walked around the "runway" by herself while their teacher described the dress she was wearing and the accessories she carried, but at the end they all gathered for some group pics.

Lucy modeling her Colonial dress...

Mrs. E demonstrating how "foundations" worked back in the day...

Lu & friends...

Serving the residents....

To cap off the year, we had a cookout/square dance. 

There was dancing...

Roasting marshmallows for smores...

Dads shooting the breeze...

Fun was had by all!
Looking forward to Victorian Girls next year!!
