Janika's Award Ceremony

Tonight was the Award Ceremony for the Middle School.  Janika showed up having come straight from her friend's house where they were tie-dying tennis shoes.  I'm not quite sure how you tie-dye shoes but they turned out really cute!   Unfortunately it left their hands dyed as well as their shoes.  For the award ceremony there was a "red carpet" running along the gym floor with all of the teachers lined up on both sides.  The students walked through the line high-fiving their teachers.  So you can imagine how it looked with Janika holding up blue, green, and purple hands!   She said that all of her teachers were exclaiming, "Janika, what happened?"  Anyway, Jani walked away with awards for Honor Roll, dance, FACS, drama, Spanish, PE and Presidential Fitness.  She wasn't expecting an award for PE or the Presidential Fitness award, so that was a surprise.  She had heard that if you get the Presidential Fitness award you got a certificate signed by the President of the United States.  She said she wasn't very excited about getting Obama's signature but then added, "Well, at least he spelled my name right!"
