We have had lots of things happening around here lately. It seems that the pace was no slower after the holidays! We started back to co-op with me teaching two classes this semester. I love to be with the children and teaching, but I think I should have stuck to one class. There is a lot to prepare for with two classes.
Somewhere shoved in there we had Carter's 7th birthday party. We were blessed with many friends to share it with. I told him he was a very lucky little boy to have all those friends that care about him.
We have also been busy with Cub Scouts. We have had den meetings, pack meetings, the Blue and Gold Banquet in February and then most recently was Pinewood Derby. Carter chose to make his car into a fish. It definitely wasn't the fastest and he didn't win for design either. One of the Boy Scout leaders officiating at the race said that it was definitely the most imaginative he had seen in a while. Carter had fun and that's what matters!
We did finally take a little break last week. We took a much needed short vacation to celebrate our 14th anniversary. We took a short family trip to Gatlinburg. That was the second time that we had been there since Carter was born. He didn't remember his first trip because he was only 2 the last time we were there. He didn't know what to expect before we went but he didn't want to leave when it came time to return home.
