Almost a year... ooops~

Wow, it's been almost a year since my last post.  I cannot say how many times I sat down to the computer and tried to update.  The longer I waited the more updates I needed to post.  Trying to think of all the wonderful things that have happened without missing anything got to a point of overwhelming, until now.  Now it's past that point.. now I feel like I can just list some of our highlights. So here goes- my list of super awesomeness for the year (please excuse if I miss any events).
*Pine Wood Derby
  - our very last one for Seth's cubscouts.  So sad but we made it a big one and had a blast!
*Seth got his Arrow of light
  - pretty big accomplishment for our little man
