Back in January the kids got bronze medals for reading. And Nikki was star student of the month. She was having such a hard time since her teacher was out due to her husband being ill and she had a terrible sub. Nikki loves school so much so it was hard to see her so unhappy but she still worked hard!

We had an amazing year using our Disney passes. It was great to be able to go with Bret on Sundays. I hope to get passes again but we are on a little break now. The kids go on all the crazy rides now. Nikki’s favorite is Space Mountain. Justin loves California Screamin and Space Mountain. Thankfully they are big enough to go on CA Screamin on their own-the drops are way too big for me. Waiting in a 2 hour line was worth the picture we got of Elsa and Anna:

At the kids school they celebrated Dr. Suess’s birthday. The kids get to wear their jammies to school. I got to read a book to the kids classes; Justin picked Oh The Pets You Can Get and Nikki picked Oh The Places You Can Go.

I gave it a try to make the kids bodies spell love for a Valentine’s Day card to hand out for school. I had something in mind so it didn’t come out exactly as planned but it worked:

Justin has joined cub scouts. So funny when you ask him why he didn’t want to join, he says that he doesn’t want to wear a collared shirt. So far they have visited the fire station and attended a meeting. They have started working on their pinewood derby cars. So far I think it has been a really good experience, Justin always comes home from the events happy and exciting. He doesn’t have the patches on, etc but here is my little cub scout:

We are working on a setting up a second girl scout troop for Nikki. We had a quick get together at Yogurtland with the moms and girls. I volunteered to be a co-leader so I have had to do some boring training…..
