January: Girl's Day

Taylor has been working so hard at her "after schooling" and I've been so proud of her. She is learning to overcome so much and in January, it was time to celebrate a little. So off we went on a girls day at the mall. The plan was to get our make up done, look at princess dresses, get a treat, and ride the carousel. Taylor had some anxiety when we got to the make up counter so she played on my phone while I made a few purchases. But she thoroughly enjoyed putting on some lip gloss! We walked through Macy's and looked at beautiful gowns and jewels. It was so fun to watch her skip through the isles with her hands out to touch the soft fabric. She was in heaven! Then we got a quick treat and wrote the carousel a few times.

I'm so thankful for my sweet Taylor. I can't wait until our next girl's day!

Being a five year old is a magical age.

January: 1st Pine Wood Derby

I can't believe I have a cub scout! Carter received his car some time in November and couldn't wait to begin work on it. When January came and it was time, there wasn't a happier little boy. Carter spent a lot of time looking online to get ideas for what his car would look like. He ultimately wanted a blue car with a lightening bolt. Drew helped him come up with a good design and together they worked hard.

This kid was born to be a cub scout.

Doing some last minute fine tuning.

Carter & his friend James.

Carter's lightening bold won most aerodynamic! Way to go Carter!
