NES Read-a-thon

The school made a goal last fall to read 300,000 minutes.  If they did, the principal would have to kiss a pig! The assembly was today.  The pig was kissed and winners for each grade were announced.  I had been given the heads up by her teacher that Julia was going to get 3rd place for the entire 2nd grade so I was there to snap some pics.

In the audience before the assembly...she has no idea she is one of the prize winners.


I got as close as I could and ducked down to try to get a picture of her reaction when they called her name.  A little blurry, but the best I could do. She was shocked!
