Bobby Burns 100th Celebration

The Miles City Caledonian Society is a group that supports Scottish heritage. Each year they pay homage to poet and lyricist Robert Burns with a celebration of his birth (January 25, 1759)usually the last weekend in January. The celebration includes dancing, pipes, singing, poetyr and dinner. January 26th, 2008 marked Miles City's 100th year hosting a Bobby Burns celebration. The society also includes the Highland Dancers, which is a group for children ages 5 and up to learn Scottish Dancing. Abby has been dancing now for two years and we are so proud of her. My husband used to dance when he was a child so we thought it would be a great thing for Abby to do. She absolutely loves it and Maggie can't wait to join her. Here are a few photos of the 2008 Burns celebration. You may be wondering what the green thing is. It was the final dance with the whole group. Abby's class was the Lochness Monster. It was way cuter in person!
