April 2012 - Dance Competition
In April 2012, Savanna had just turned twelve and was finishing up her 6th grade year at Startown Elementary School in Newton, NC. Her mother, Beth, got a teaching job at Claremont Elementary School and it was decided that Savanna would go to River Bend Middle School and thus be able to ride with her mother to work, instead of Maiden Middle School. Savanna excelled in the seventh grade at River Bend, but she made the decision that 2012 would be her last year to participate in dance. These photos were taken on 28 Apr 2012.

Savanna, You were the "first" - the first granddaughter - and I was (and still am) so proud of you. Spending time with you always bring joy and happiness into my life. You have no idea just how special you are. May you always follow the LORD and seek His direction for every choice in your life. May you always have a close and personal relationship with Yeshua/Jesus - He's the only true source of joy and happiness. I love you and always will. Poppi
