On December 9, 2018, we had our Christmas party!  All of our girls wore their Christmas shirts or sweaters.  There was a potluck for our food with Mom Ginger’s famous Heath Bar Cake.  We were all able to eat and have a great time laughing and having fun.  We also had our White Elephant gift exchange which is always a good time.  Afterwards, we all went up to the Assembly room to set up a Christmas tree for our breakfast with Santa.  This was a great way to show fellowship and unwind before the holiday break!

On September 26th, Kaitlyn, Phoenix, Sarah, and I went to Haygood Skating rink. Phoenix, Sarah, and I were skating and I almost fell a few times but succeeded in not falling during the time we were there. We ate pizza and enjoyed the company of each other.

Battlefield HS Football Game August 24, 2018

All summer I had been hearing about Joella doing Color guard with the BHS Marching Band.  I heard about ordering equipment, shoes, gloves, all the practices and camp.  I even had to watch her leave Supreme Assembly early to work on the routines.  I know how hard she worked and how excited she was about being part of the Color Guard and I wasn’t the only one.  So on August 24^th some of Manassas Assembly #13 went to the first football game of the season to support Joella at her first game performance.  It was me, Gigi and Dalanie as well as Mom Priscilla, Mom Ange and Mom Louisa.  We are so proud of her and all the work she has put into this and we can’t wait to see all the things she does with Color Guard!

Isabella – Manassas Assembly #13

On Sunday, October 16th, Manassas Assembly took a tour of the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C.  It was free of charge, and our tour guide was awesome.  He took us all around the Kennedy Center and into several of the theaters.  I didn’t realize how many gifts from other countries and pieces of artwork are displayed all around as you walk through.  Many different countries have given items such as the marble for the Hall of Nations, the crystal chandeliers, and the silk curtains in the theaters.  There are paintings, sculptures, and even wood carvings and frescoes on the ceiling in some areas.  There is even a drum from the Beijing Olympics.  It was a really fun event.
