Girl Scouts!

For the first time in TEN YEARS I met up with my old Girl Scout troop! Our leaders were also there.left to right: Trudi (Rebecca's mom), Jane (Mary's mom), Mary, Rebecca, Theresa, Heather, me!

I have many happy memories with these gals, and will share just a couple.

Rebecca and I went on a Girl Scouts / Girl Guides trip to Mexico with girls from as far away as Greece! We learned Cielito Lindo and Hey Mickey (You're so Fine) in Spanish together. :)

Rebecca and I (with bangs) in Mexico... such cool uniforms! ;)

Theresa was not only an awesome leader, but also my incredible fourth grade math teacher, Ms. O! She's now a college prof. up in Maine! I could share hundreds of happy stories, but most of all it amazes me how absolutely wonderful she was to me, despite my behavior in her class. What love and patience!

Oh, and Merry Christmas! I'll have another holiday post soon. :)
