Floortje's rodeo art

I try to post most of the things that happen in our lives that are worth mentioning.  However, sometimes things slip through the crack (especially things like holidays when there are so many pictures to sort through).  

Floortje's art is also something that didn't make it here, and when I happened to come across these pictures today I decided that I didn't do her justice so here it is.

At school all the kids had been working on a painting in the rodeo theme which had a chance to be selected to go to the Katy school district exhibition and from there to the big show at the Houston Rodeo.  Older students have the opportunity to win nice scholarships with this.

Floortje had been keeping us up to date of what she had been working on.  Then one day she came home very excited and told us that her painting had been selected as 1 of 2 of first grade to go to the local exhibition!

Of course we went to see the picture on display and Floortje was very proud.  Her picture did not get selected to go to the rodeo but she is determined to give it another try next year!

Well done Floor!
