Week 33: Back in the saddle again...The holidays are officially over and the school routine is starting! We are slowly getting used to getting up for school, homework, and extracurricular activities! We tried to play outside and ride bikes as much as the weather would allow. Mary Virginia's 2nd report card came out this week and she did great as always! I am so proud of her for all her hard work! At Girl Scouts, we learned all about COOKIES! That is right, Girl Scout Cookies go on sale next Friday (the 20th)! MV is so excited to tell everyone what they need to order! We had a Cookie Rally on Saturday to get us in the Cookie mood...show me one person that has a hard time getting the Girl Scout Cookie mood!
We started a new activity this week...basketball! MV is on the Bears! There are just 5 kids on the team and she is the only girl. I can't wait to see the first game! Ed was able to take her to practice and one look at him and he was asked to be the assistant coach! So, I have two basketball stars in the house!
(Ready for practice!)On Saturday morning, we picked up another Girl Scout and headed for the Cookie Rally! This is such a cute group of girls! They were ready to learn how to sell cookies!
While doing lots of fun activities about coolies, the girls were asked to put down their goals for how many boxes of cookies they were going to sell. The other girls had great goals of 40 or 50 boxes but not MV...
She set a goal for herself of 650 boxes...luckily I talked her down to 250 boxes. I guess we are going to be hitting the streets selling some cookies!
The girls posed for a quick picture in their favorite cookies!
After a day full of Girl Scouts, MV had a play date with one of her fellow scouts! The girls had so much fun playing together - I am so glad the she has found a great group of girls!

Poor John Bay...he didn't make the pictures this week, so here is his shot of the week! All smiles as usual even if he was sick!
