Vail Pride Day

Yesterday was Vail Pride Day. This is a festival that our school district puts on at the County Fairgrounds. It is so fun. There are art shows, writing displays, science projects, Academic Jeopardy, Math Bowls, and lots of performances. This picture above is Charlie with his art project. (It is the vase on the top right.)

Charlie's Academic Jeopardy team.


Janet's Math Bowl team. Janet had quite a reputation to live up to. Elizabeth competed in this competition every year for Old Vail Middle School. Brent Edwards introduced this event. He is also one of the coaches at another middle school. He went through each team and had them test their buzzers to make sure they were working. When he got to Janet's team and the buzzer worked he said, "I wish YOUR'S didn't work, Toller!"



Charlie sang with his choir.




Janet plays her trumpet.
As you can see, it was a busy day. But so much fun. Anne was also there but mainly participated by turning Mom's pages in the music performances, and cheering everyone else on. Elizabeth spent the day in Phoenix at the State Science Olympiad. (I will blog about that later this week.)

Looks like you did have a lot of fun!!! Our kids were just saying tonight how much they want to get together with Toller cousins. We miss you all so much.

Honestly Janelle, when I hear the words Vail Pride Day, I think of you. It just amazes me how you can make it through that day. Looks/sounds like it was a successful day for the whole family.

Sounds like a great day for all of the Toller's. And I loved Janet's talk yesterday... her personality sure shines through!
