I had a very enjoyable MLK weekend with 10 of my girlfriends from college. I'll post pictures of it soon, so check back.

I have a new favorite song. It is Better Together by Jack Johnson. It's the song I was listening to loudly on the radio in my truck when I heard the accompaniment of police sirens behind me. Even so, I still love this song. Makes me smile and wish I could play guitar and sing and be in a band.

Well, February is just a couple of weeks away. February will dawn a new season of ACU baseball (this is the first season that Brandon was not a member on the team with any of the players, so everyone knows him as 'coach'); Summer, Chad, and Ava will move into their new home; Dad will have his 52nd birthday; and I will be hold practice sessions for the four members who signed up for the spelling bee...intimate group!

Yesterday Summer and I went to Books a Million. When I was pushing Ava in her stroller, she reached out and swiped a pink Hello Kitty purse. So I got her out of the stroller and put the purse around her neck. She turned to us, waved, and said, "Bye-bye, see you," and then started walking off on her own, greeting anyone she met with an enthusiastic "Hi!" Friendly, independent one-year old!
