Five to start out February!

1.  February is historically my least favorite month (no offense to those who celebrate birthdays then ,KARA) but this past January was unexpectedly hectic so we're glad to put it behind us and move on to brighter seasons.   As my dear friend Ruth and I say/text/FB to each other every first day of the month "Rabbit, Rabbit!"

 2)  Our January weekends were lucky enough to include a visit from this little studmuffin and his family. We love catching up the Wilsons!

3.  This week also wraps up National Lutheran Schools Week.  As posted on Facebook by one of our girls' teachers:   Lutheran Schools are driven by a commitment to the Gospel. That's 229,571 students hearing the message of salvation in Christ Jesus. ~ courtesy of the LCMS.  

My girls celebrated with a zillion different dress-up days (I barely managed to keep them straight!), a field trip to the Science Center, a Ezra Jack Keats day, and Bring a Friend Day today.  Tonight we are off to an ice cream social.  


4)  DELANEY IS WALKING.  VIDEO TO COME SOON!


5) It's been a while since the Wards have posted a BIG, LIFE-CHANGING announcement.  Don't worry, we've got one in the works.  Another reason January was so busy.  (Hint--get your address books ready for a *slight* modification)
