Krewe of Crawfish

One of my favorite things about our schools
is the Kindergarten Mardi Gras parade!
Avery's class was the Krewe of Crawfish
and my little crawfish was so cute with her
pink claw. Brooklyn was also in the parade
with the Krewe of Chefs.

Family Pictures

Over the Christmas holidays we had family pictures
taken while we were all together. Here are a few of them.
They turned out great!

Learning Life Skills

Aaron recently learned how to scramble
eggs. Avery has requested that he make
her some a few times over the last few weeks.
Avery insists that he eggs are better than mine.
(insert eye roll)

LSU Gymnastics

Momma has loved going to the gymnastics
meets this year. This was our third one and
only one left of the season. I may try to buy
season tickets for next year.
GO Tigers!

Blue and Gold

Another year of scouting is almost over. My boys earned
their Bear rank and ceremoniously drank the bear blood.
Avery is a little scarred that they sacrificed a stuffed animal
but the boys thought it was hilarious. Just 2 more years left
in cub scouts and that makes me so sad. We have LOVED
every minute of it!

Broken Bone #2

Avery had a little tumbled at a skating birthday
party and then she fell on it again the next day
on the bowling field trip. Finally mom and
dad decided to take her to the doctor where
sure enough it was broken. She is now sporting
a pretty pink cast for the next few weeks.
She also insisted that we sign her cast and
has been enjoying asking others to sign it
as well. We are thankful it was just
a simple break and should heal quickly.

Field Trips

Avery had 2 field trips back to back
this week. I missed the first one due
to the lovely flu that she gave me but
I was able to go bowling. She had
a great time even though she was sad
that momma couldn't go on one.

Family Fun Night

We went to our second LSU gymnastics
meet but Avery had the flu so she and daddy
stayed home. Gram, Granny, and Paw Paw
joined Aaron and I. Aaron did not want to go
but I bribed him with money for his
Scholastic book order and he accompanied
his momma. Paw Paw also bought him
some Dippin Dots so don't feel sorry for him.

It's FLU season

Break out the Lysol because the FLU has
claimed the first victim. After 4 days she is on
the mend and Momma is praying no one
else is next.

Upward Season Starts

Upward started this week at our church.
Aaron will be playing basketball again this
year and Avery was excited to participate
in cheer. Our Saturday mornings will be busy
for the next 6 weeks!
