National Book Awards 2018

Olivia's AHG badges sometimes have odd requirements, but this one was pretty neat. She was working on her Book Adventurer badge, which is all about reading and literature. One of the requirements was to attend some kind of book awards. Lo and behold, the Greensboro Library was hosting a gala and showing of the National Book Awards, so the timing was perfect!

 Mom and daughter went and got matching dresses to mark the occasion.

 They even had a red carpet set up for the evening for them to walk and a little "press" area to get her picture taken like a celebrity.

The awards weren't necessarily as exciting as something like the Oscars, but they ladies had a great time nonetheless.
