Battle Of The Books Again

For the second year in a row, Greta's team went to the Battle of the Books championships. 
They lost by 1 point to the fifth grade team that has now been undefeated for three years. It was an awesome battle. 
 Miss Greta is starting to show that she has quite a bit of moxy. Especially when she sees injustice. 
We were on vacation when the team pics were taken and she was told no retakes, even if I took the pic and developed it. So Greta started photo bombing the battle of the book wall in the hall at school with a self portrait drawn by her on a post it. They kept getting taken down and thrown away so once again on championship day she did one last photo bomb. I saw it and laughed and had to take a picture. I love that she has moxy. 
 Waiting for the battle, right after this she had the school doing some arm dance. This girl can work a crowd.

 And of course still working the crowd when her name was called. You can see her under the screen, not shy is she? 
 So proud of them and Greta was excited to win $10 for Scholastic books which she has already chosen. 
Such a close battle and so very fun and stressful to watch.
