Leah's a girl scout!

One of the first things Leah asked to do after she started kindergarten was to join the girl scouts. I had always thought it would be a good idea for all the girls, so we went down to the school on recruitment night and signed up. She joined a troop that meets twice a month. It's kind of neat how they have it set up. The girls range in age from kindergarten to early teenage years. They all meet together as one big group in the beginning of the meeting then break off into their smaller groups- daisy's, brownies, etc. And it is CHAOS!!! These girls get together and it is complete madness! But they have SO MUCH FUN! I just love watching how Leah smiles ear to ear the whole time she is there. We walk in the door and the bigger girls swoop up both of the girls and I don't see them the whole night. I just sit back and watch them enjoy themselves- it's great! Last night Leah had her investiture ceremony so she is now "official" and they had a party afterwards. I think the pictures speak for themselves as to the fun the girls had!

It's really a lot of fun! I highly recommend it to anyone with young daughters. Also, we are now selling cookies until January 22. They are $4/box. Let me know if you are interested!
