The Scouts Are Out

The Brandt family gained 2 cookie selling Girl Scouts this week! We've been on the waiting list for a troop FOREVER but we finally got placed this week. Since both girls need to be in the same troop (for sanity and logistic purposes) we had a hard time finding a "split" troop (Annabelle is a "Daisy" and Heaven is a "Brownie"). This week we joined troop 418 and the girls had their first meeting. They absolutely loved it. There are 9 girls in their troop total and they all seemed eager to welcome the newbies. (One of the girls told Heaven she was "so pretty" which granted her instant acceptance and top spot into Heaven's friendship circle). Much to their disappointment and embarrassment I crashed their first meeting on Tuesday. I told them I promise not to stay at every meeting but I wasn't going to just leave them with a stranger either. They seemed to accept this with reluctance. The meeting went well and as we are right in the beginning of Cookie Season the girls are very excited to sell some cookies. Annabelle especially has been knocking on the door or stopping anyone who looks like they might be interested (which translates into most people she sees).

So If you want cookies...let us know :)

Friday night he had 4 friends spend the night & though I had a mini stroke over a legitimate offer to spray paint part of our outside storage area, the boys had a blast. Gavin is really hung up on  Guthrie's  right now so we started the evening out with Guthrie's for dinner & then John, begin the brave (insane) loaded all the boys up and took them to see Ice Age.  They returned home with plenty of energy to burn & spent the rest of the evening playing outside and having video game battles. Thanks to my saint of sister who kept the girls, it was a boys only zone, and was undoubtably outnumbered.  The next morning, though they were up VERY late,...

 The girls had their church Christmas Program this weekend. They performed at both morning services and were equally amazing each time around! They've been practicing for the mast few months, and all their hard work most definitely paid off.
