Girl Scouts

Anyone know anything about Girl Scouts? I don't! This is the only thing I know about Girl Scouts.

COOKIES!


Rylee wanted to join Girl Scouts last year, but we were so busy . . . . ok, I just didn't want to deal with it. I thought she'd forget about it this year. WRONG! Back to school night last week, they had a Girl Scout table set up, and guess who made a beeline to find out some info? Yep, the girl did. She gave me the sweet, 'Please mom', with the big puppy dog eyes, and I caved. We have a parents meeting next week. I hope I can learn a lot, cause' I know nothing! {about Girl Scouts}

I know a little, my Landry is a Girl Scout. She begged me to join for a couple of years. Last year I finally gave in, and I'm so happy that I did. She loves it. They promote friendship (the good old fashioned nonjudgemental love-everyone-for-who-they-are kind), valuable life lessons (like maintaining good moral character, finances, etc.), and most importantly GOD! In a nation where we have no prayer in school and we can't mention the Lord because we may offend some non-believer, Girl Scouts has remained steadfast in their faith. Landry participated in a "God and Me" Girl Scout course this summer for four weeks to earn a badge. How wonderful to have fun with your friends AND learn about God! Girl Scouts has been a great experience for us so far...and the cookies aren't so bad either!!!

State Fair of Texas

A few weekends ago, we went to the fair. It was super crowded, but the weather was perfect. The girls had a blast riding rides, eating fair food, and looking at all the animals. Harper was so good. She slept the majority of the time, but when she was awake, she just played in her little bassinet. I think she enjoyed the fresh air. ;)

Texas Tech v. Texas Longhorns

My husband is from New Deal, Texas {a very TINY town around the corner from Lubbock - Ha!}. He went to Tech and is a HUGE Tech football fan. Up until this year, my 4 yr old, Rylee has followed in her daddy's footsteps. She loved the Red Raiders and would always have her "guns up!" Not too long ago, she informed her daddy that she QUIT the Red Raiders and is now a Longhorn! A daddy's heart was broken on that summer night. {yes, she goes around with her horns in the air and yes, her daddy cringes!} Can't wait to see what happens tonight when the Red Raiders play the Longhorns. Will she have her "guns up" or her "horns" up? We shall see.... Until next time...... xoxo
