Cookie Booth

Tonight was Reagan's first Cookie Booth of the season.  They sold around 100 boxes of cookies within two hours.  The girls were so excited (and a little hyper) to be selling cookies at the booth.

great customer service!

Saturday Stuff

The kids and I stayed home today while Greg helped some friends with their move.  The kids and I worked a little, then had a little fun!

Cooper helped by cleaning the return air grates

 After chores, we had a little dance party in the hall

Reagan joined in on the fun too!

Later in the afternoon, Girl Scout Cookie delivery began in the neighborhood

 Samoas are Reagan's personal favorite

 I watched from our front porch as Reagan made her first delivery

Fire and Ice

Tonight was the local Girl Scout Council's annual Father/Daughter Dance.  The theme for the dance was Fire and Ice.  Each scout and their father was asked to wear red and/or blue.  I ordered Reagan 4 different dresses, and she fell in love with this one.

ready for her date

 Daddy and Daughter

 Greg and Reagan went out to dinner at Reagan's favorite restaurant (Taco Boy), then headed to the dance.  At the dance, they had cupcakes, ice cream and several other treats.  Reagan said they played a lot of good music...and this was the best night of her life!

Meanwhile, Cooper also planned a date night for me and him.  He wanted to eat at Sonic and have a milkshake.  Big spender, that one!

 we got the food to go so we could come home to the best part of the date...cartoons.  Seriously, if he treats all his dates this way, he won't have too many.  That may not be a bad idea!!!

When Reagan and Greg made it home, we finished off the evening with a family movie night.  We watched The Book of Life.

Girl Scout Christmas

Today, Reagan's Girl Scout Troop had their Christmas party.  The girls decided to do a service project and collect food for the Ronald McDonald House.  they also did a silly sock exchange with each other.
