The girls have worked really hard this year with 4H- I am really proud of them. For fashion revue, they got to walk down a runway in front of a judge and an audience.
Because Claire is a Cloverbud, she wasn't in a competition, but Audra was. Claire got a well deserved participation ribbon, and Audra....won 1st place in her division! This was quite a surprise, but I think she won because she did a skirt and shirt, and she was the only one who did a shirt. And shirts are a lot harder than skirts. She was pretty happy.
Then, in a SUPER fun surprise, Audra won the "Poise and Posture" award! She said, "What's poise and posture? Why do they think I had that?"
They also made some friends, which was the BEST. Audra is always worried that she won't have any friends, but she is the friendliest person. Claire was nervous to go in front of everybody, but she did fabulous. She has a nervous tick of tucking her hair behind her ears when she is nervous, so I pulled it back for the formal show in the evening (they had to walk the runway twice- once for the judges in the afternoon, and then again in the evening for parents/grandparents/public). Claire rocked it- I was really, really proud of her. She has come a long way with her nervousness in front of crowds.
I LOVED how her hair turned out. She looked so beautiful:

It was a great day for these beautiful girls!
(And, I'll give a shout out to Camille who was a HUGE sport for hanging out for 5 hours while Audra and Claire participated in this great event. I let her put on lipstick and mascara like her sisters, and she really wanted her picture taken with make-up on)
