Junior/Senior Banquet (JSB) is our school's version of prom. It is hosted by the juniors as a gift for the seniors. Last year, Ella's class decided the theme and set it up and organized the food and entertainment. This year, she and her classmates sat back and enjoyed what the class behind them came up with. It's a fun night for the seniors! They get to go for free and some of the entertainment is about them with class and individual senior trivia!
These girls have my heart. What an answer to prayer they have been! One of the reasons Ella is so amazing is because she's been shepherded for years by this outstanding group of godly, talented, brilliant, young women leaders. As they all head in different directions now, our prayer changes. I do pray they can stay in each others' lives through more seasons of life.
First the glamorous pictures...
Now the goofball pictures!

Ella made this super fun GlamShot video of everyone! Many of these girls chose to do something cool-- repurpose, re-wear, or borrow their dress! Ella was excited to give this favorite from sophomore year a second wear.
The friend group is large and we love them all. But over the past 2 years, this core group has kind of developed. Ansley, Anna, Ella, Maya and Ruth share AP classes, a drama stage, and other deeper connections. They love studying the Bible, cooking, creating, and hiking together and they are the ones who will be responsible for most of Ella's homesickness next year. ;) We can't wait to watch their future plans unfold. They will run tech companies and restaurant kitchens, build prosthetics, engineer medical devices, and deliver babies and they'll serve their Lord while doing it all!
That's a wrap on yet another Last. So end the days of dressing up with these dear friends...until maybe they're all bridesmaids in each others' weddings!
