Got Cookies?




It's that time again....when hundreds of young girls run all over town, knock on doors and try their best to sell them....the famous Girl Scout Cookies!!
This year, the girls are sending their order forms to work with dad, and will go to a few neighbors, but their sales won't likely come close to last year's. Last year, we had 2 girls in the family selling, and this year we have all 3. It's just really hard when there is more than one child in the family taking orders.
Our GS troop is also asking people to donate cookies to the US armed forces...so if people don't want to eat the cookies themselves, they can just donate the $ and a box will be added to a supply that will be sent overseas.

Claire was SO excited to become a brownie this year...she proudly wore her vest to the cookie kickoff last Friday. Allyson was excited about moving up to junior level, so she wore her vest as well. Emily, on the other hand, was a different story. This is her second year as a junior. She definitely did NOT want to wear her vest because...in her words: "I look hideous! The color is hideous!"
This totally cracked me up because the hideous color appears to be just a few shades darker than the shirt she's wearing!!! LOL Oh, the fun emotions of a pre-teen!!!
