How could I forget?!

Our daughter, Kaylie, has joined Girl Scouts this year. She absolutely loves it and is already talking about continuing next year! Her cookie sale has started and she has already exceeded her goal!! If her troop can sell enough, they get to go to The Mall Of America for an overnight stay.

Our little daughter, Gracelyn, is now taking swimming lessons at the Rec. Center. Thankfully she is having a blast even though her little group consists of all boys. We'll see how this goes. It'll be so nice to go on vacation and not have to worry about Gracie in the pool!

Our son, Shane, is still taking up violin! He seems to be really excited about it and loves to practice. It sounds so beautiful, I secretly would love to learn to play it. He's keeping up with his little Ratties. Except when it's time to clean the cage, then I feel like I'm nagging at him to do it. I didn't think I'd like them, but they are quite cute. Although the creepy tail does creep me out.

Next stop is Shane's 11th birthday. We have been consumed with party planning and checking prices. He's thinking Planet X with a group of his closest friends. My grandma also has a birthday in February. She's turning 89!!!

I'll keep this updated more often, I promise. It's one of my New Years Resolutions. Hope this finds you all well, and warm.
