Girl Scouts Galore...

Wow! We have kicked the New Year off with a cookie selling spree. Gracie decided to be a Girl Scout Brownie this year, and it is cookie selling time. She has worked really hard the last few days selling her cookies. (If you would like some, let me know. You can mail us a check, and we will mail you some cookies!) She has made a few phone calls and knocked on many doors with her daddy. They nearly froze early today, but they were not discouraged! She is coming to the school Tuesday when she gets out to see the teachers, and she is going to her daddy's work on Thursday. She is very dedicated and convincing!! We are very proud of her.

Gracie has been reading a lot lately, but she seems interested in the Charlie Bone series. These books are a little longer, and they take her longer to read than books in the past. She is still working toward her goal of a brick in the wall. She only needs about 50 more points! We are very excited about it!

Other than Girl Scouts and reading, not much is happening around here right now. We will jump full force into soccer next month, but right now we are taking easy. We will celebrate John's 33rd birthday this Friday too! I guess that will be enough excitement for one month.
