so you may have heard that the
south walton community july 4th parade
was completely washed out this year on 30A...
so my little friends and i had to be patient
and wait for the next best opportunity
to perform our annual fourth of july dance routine:
at the rosemary beach
KIDS ROCK THE BLOCK PARTY!
we finally got to show our stuff
and celebrate AMERICA and our community
the best way we know how...
dancing in the streets!
we danced to the song #thatpower
by will.i.am and justin bieber...
here are some pics from the routine,
and at the bottom of this post is a video!
happy fourth of july y'all... from all of us at gigi's!

here's another super fun project...
we invited kids to make their own mustache photo props
at the WHAT'S UP table recently!
they used mustaches cut out of card stock,
colored them with markers, and taped a stick to the back!
then they posed in front of the gigi's stage backdrop
for MISS COCOA's camera with their finished product!
great job kids... i hardly recognized you!
did you know you can go to miss cocoa's website
to learn more about her photography business?
by the way, last week's lemonade stand was rained out,
but we still raised money for Alaqua Animal Refuge
by having a "twizzler stand" at our register...
combined with the donations collected
at the week's WHAT'S UP events,
plus $5 per gigi's tshirt sold during the week,
we made a total of $202.56 for the homeless animals!
special thanks to all the kids who signed up to volunteer
and were on call in case it cleared up:
caitlin, sophie, ellie, emj, hen, raelei, olivia,
eva, taylor, anna, and lea!
we have a lemonade stand scheduled for today
from 3:00-5:00! come out and get you some!
