Our windows stay open all the time now because it is really hot and there is no air conditioning. And today, through our open window, we were greeted to a 7 a.m. serenade by a 20 piece marching band riding around through the neighborhood in a wagon. Apparently it was all part of Shuetzenfest in Witlaer. There are these shooting clubs (target shooting) that have these big festivals every summer. Today, there are many people who are part of the clubs who don't actually do much shooting. They just go around playing oompah music in the early morning! Let's hope they get it out of their systems before Saturday!
Maddie had her portfolio day today--which is when all the parents come in and the kids get to show off their work. That was in the morning. In the afternoon, parents were invited in to the final ballet class to see what they had learned during the year. Maddie's class has little girls from England, Korea, Sweden, China, Belgium and Germany. I realized for the first time today that Maddie is the ONLY American in the class!
