I am so far behind on this thread!! I have been soooo busy since we have gotten back from the cruise (feel free to ask any questions). Taking three classes isn't helping and neither is the Girl Scout Cookie sale!! 10 new girls so I had no idea how many cases to get and I have had to go back twice to get more! At least this year youngest DD doesn't get into the cookies without asking like last year. I had to count the boxes everyday just in case!

Plus there is dance, basketball games and practices, Little League meetings.....
I hope everyone gets over whatever is ailing them. Me and 2 DDs were very sick when we got back from the trip. Mine lasted for nearly 2 weeks! It was really just a cold, but I couldn't kick it!
Last night was very exciting! DD 11 was in her school's spelling bee (5th and 6th grade). This is her third year in a row being in it (they have one for the 3-4th grade school also). Last year she was out the first round misspelling restaurant. And we own one!!

Well, this year she actually WON!!

She was shaking afterwards she was so excited! Her teacher actually went out during her lunch break to get er flowers today. She was so sad that she didn't make it, but 2 of her other teachers, as well as her teacher from last year, were there. She now goes to the county level on March 3rd. We'll have to study this time, but I don't think she really wants to go much farther. It's the National Scripp's one that you see on TV. She isn't nearly that good!

But we are very proud of her.
Life seems to be more back to normal so hopefully I will be around more...
