I love the pride in your voice….win, lose or place. Super sweet.

See how sweet you are, James? ;-) Giving everyone a million points and sending them home. I'm the same. I don't mind healthy competition, but when it gets ugly and people are mean and cheat... I'm not a competitive person. I don't really understand super competitive people other than they need some kind of ego boost. That's all I can figure. Sounds like your girls have wonderful hobbies and nice reasonable competitions to be part of. Hope you are staying warm and safe after the storm. We got 17 inches of snow here in central Ohio!

Wow! We're between 7 and 9 inches here, but as you go east, the totals climb fast.

So...was Lucy the MVP for not having any activities this weekend??? Sounds like a lot of fun, but if there was one more event to go to I suspect your head might have exploded.

Facts. She did help run the Pinewood Derby in her role as a BSA Scout, so I suppose she was activity adjacent.

" I should buy the biggest trophy in the world but only give it out to my kids if they put away their laundry." This might work. Goodwill/Salvation Army often has large trophys for very cheap. Try it and let us know

I might need a bigger trophy budget. Or a bigger house to store all the trophies.

Sounds like a great day that ended the way it should, home safely before the storm. I’m in Florida and your cold weather is bearing down on us here, the born and raised Floridians are shaking in their boots, I’m looking for my long sleeves.
