These ponytails lasted about 4 minutes...this girl is NOT a fan of hairdos, as her facial expression shows. She definitely looks adorable with ponytails but, sigh...the world will never know!
Here is our race car driver! This year we had a little more involvement in the Pinewood Derby, Dad was in charge of the whole thing! That meant we had the scouts over to our garage on a cold night to work on their cars to get ready for the big race, Dad had to order the trophies and run the computer during the race (hardest part!). This year our guy did not get in the top ten so he did not go on to the regional competition, but making the car and racing was a fun experience.
A little chilly, yes, but it was still a good day to head out on the trail with Dad. A phrase around our house since April, when Dad won the Fitbit, is "getting steps in" - he shoots for 10,000 steps daily. Of course, these kids have plenty of energy to burn and are great companions if anyone ever needs company getting any steps in, they can help!
For a while, ARM has been asking that we "bonk" the beds...and her wish came true to start off 2016. It is nice to see how happy she is about this change - ahh, the small joys of life! We are just worried she will climb up there with her new book light and a stack of books and we will never see her again.
