Daisy to Brownie

We are so lucky that we happened upon such a great Daisy troop last year.  The girls and moms were so sweet and welcoming.  Ella Catherine loved every meeting and every event.  Sad to say that last year was her only year of being a daisy.  So to kick start off the new year of being a brownie, she had a bridging ceremony.  After the ceremony was over, her amazing troop leader hosted a spa party at her house for the girls.  The troop had some leftover money from their cookie sales last year.  She bought each girl a spa robe and had them monogrammed.  In addition, she had it all set up so the girls would enjoy manicures, pedicures, a facial and a mini massage.  Ella Catherine was in heaven.  We love troop 2916!  

Each girl had a cute gift bag with their name on it (robe inside) and then a loofah, cup and nail file
