Earth Day 2012


This year Hannah decided to have an Earth Day Party.  True to form, she planned, executed, and pulled off a wonderful party all of her own making!  She decided to make our Earth Day party a World Day theme, where we celebrated many different cultures with music and cuisine from a variety of countries. 
Hannah started early making decorations, like the paper machet earth seen below.  She found everything she needed in a local shop and did a great job replicating the world with paper, glue and temra paint. 


 The menu alone was amazing!! She researched recipes from many countries and decided on what she could get and make here in our small town.....which was a challenge. From Mexico we had chips and salsa, from India we had nan, from Austria we had tea cakes, from Italy we had cinnamon gelato,  from America we had BBQ chicken :), and then we had fruit from this country.  Everything you see on the table was made by Hannah herself....and very tasty!
 Hannah even enlisted the help of our 2 college teachers, who played along and brought drinks from many different countries as well.
 Here is a close-up picture of the Austrian tea cakes.....YUM!

This was Hannah's cake she made for the occassion.  And it was soooo good!
 All the girls wore blue and green to match "the world!"  Such a fun day and so proud of my hard-working girl for a great idea, great planning, and a super-fun party!

So, so impressed Hannah! I know how much time it must have taken to get that all together and make everything from scratch. Can I hire you as an event coordinator some time?
