The Rest of March!

Continuing my revisit of 2025 while in my blog 'downtime'...

We finally celebrated Drew's birthday with a sleepover with her besties!




We also celebrated Gus' birthday - our favorite little pup turned ONE!!!


The bluebonnets were late coming in this year. This girl was NERVOUS!

Donating extra GS cookies, love the giving hearts of our girls!

Who doesn't love cake for their birthday? HA!

Makeover with my jazzercise faves!

Drew's art continues to amaze me!

Can't stop, won't stop

Gearing up for primitive camping! AND GCPS' newest cheerleader!

One of the things we did with Girl Scouts this year was take our girls primitive camping! The girls earned several badges on this trip, but we all had a blast!





What is primitive camping you ask? No electricity, no running water 
{therefore no flushing toilets so I'm throwing away our waste, yuck}

Where we camped was right near a museum for the first settlement in Texas!


Dressing up as settlers, cuties!

The day we returned from camping, I took the girls to see Hamilton with Tricia and Charlotte. Such an amazing musical and experience to share with them.



I'm exhausted re-living all the busy-ness of March ha!
