Anyway, Miss Thing was way ahead on her progress for the week with her schoolwork, so I think she really deserved a fun day. So, an email to her teacher and off we went. Our Council CEO is going to make an appearance for the Christmas party this year, so everyone wants to look their Girl Scout-y best. And we didn't have a THING to wear -just kidding, but I did want to get the polo shirts for both of us.

Isn't it Perrrrrrrty?
I don't know what I'm going to do with it, but I had to get one. I'll probably sew it onto my canvas bag that I cram all my Girl Scout stuff into. Mom's should get patches too!
This whole post is pretty much just to show off the patch. I just think it's cool how you can stumble across stuff when you least expect it!
Now, if I could only stumble across some Girl Scout Christmas wrapping paper, I would be over the moon :)
Call me Crazy!
**side note** Before anyone calls the truant officer, my daughter is in K12 at Arkansas Virtual Academy. It is an online Charter school. You've probably seen the commercials about how it's a "self-paced, mastery-based public school option". I personally have a love/hate relationship with schooling my daughter at home, but it works for us, (especially when we are iced in during the winter storms and couldn't otherwise get to school.) A lot of the kids that attend ARVA have disabilities or health problems that make it hard for them to keep up at a brick and mortar school, so the schedule is flexible as long as you keep up with the assignments. My daughter works ahead most of the time and doesn't need to take time off for appointments, so she'll actually be done with her 2nd grade coursework by the middle of March. She may even have to option to start on 3rd grade work, but I suspect that she would suffocate me with my pillow in the middle of the night if I push her to do that!
Until next time my crafty, self-motivated Juliette Family!
