Happy Friday!! Life has been as hectic as usual. I feel like I have officially become the taxi driver for my kiddos and its only going to get worse. We are in full swing of Girl Scout cookie sales. We are also selling raffle tickets for Baseball/Softball. Our older 2 have signed up for Baseball and Softball. I am not sure what the schedule is going to be yet but one more thing to take up time! It seems that 4 nights of the week are taken up now. Between my 2 girls in Girl Scouts there is basketball, which is going to end soon, and I am now doing Volleyball. Us moms decided that we needed some time to get together without just sitting around waiting for our kids and will start playing volleyball on Tuesdays. Oh, and don't forget to add in Chiropractor appointments for my daughter!! Which have gone from 3 times a week to 2. *sigh*
My oldest really wants to join Boy Scouts, so I am sure that we will be doing that really soon. Then there is the upcoming Baseball and Softball. Luckily my younger daughter did not want to play softball, so that is a bonus :o) And our youngest only talks about football so we will have to see about getting him into pee wee football at some point. Probably not this year but maybe the following year, maybe even soccer for a couple of them.
Tonight is the Girl Scout ceremony where they get their patches and for those that are bridging. That should be exciting :o) * insert sarcasm* Luckily I get some time to myself tomorrow and will be able to scrapbook!!! We have my older daughters basketball game first thing in the morning and a make-up game later that afternoon but I should be able to get in quite a bit of scrapbooking time. Which at this point I am really looking forward to.
I did get some sad news this week. My aunt called to let me know that my great aunt Dory died on Monday. She was the only surviving sibling of my grandma's. The cousin that has been taking care of them in Kansas City is going to have her cremated and no service. She has her hubby left but he is in really bad shape and decided against a service, which kind of upsets me. She did not have anybody in KC but my uncle, yet I feel like it is just not right to not have a service. They had lived in Arizona for a really long time and my uncle hates being in KC and my aunt had Alzheimer's really bad and was in a nursing home and fell into a coma sometime last week and then passed away on Monday in her sleep. My aunt that told me had just got out of the hospital for bronchitis and did not find out til Tuesday night and I found out on Wednesday. I do not even know where she will be buried, if they are even going to bury her... hopefully they will at least do that right and I can eventually take a trip to KC to see my uncle and visit her grave.
Well, I have cookies to bake, so I better get to it. I hope that everyone's weekend is a great one!
