The Year of the Monkey

So, Kyle and I have declared this the Year of Fun. We have a couple vacations planned and are going to take advantage of our time in the south by riding bike paths in charleston, savannah, and seaside.

Some years have been the Year of Work, the Year of Graduation, the Year of Blessings, the Year of the Babies . . . I am excited to try out the Year of Fun.

-------------------------
Kyle took each of the girls out on a special date for their birthdays.

Ella wanted to get dressed up and go to dinner. "It was romantic even though it was my dad."

Kate decided to go golfing. I'm sure she came up with that on her own.

Kyle and I were born in the Year of the Monkey. What year are you?

People born in the Year of the Monkey are the erratic geniuses of the cycle. Clever, skillful, and flexible, they are remarkably inventive and original and can solve the most difficult problems with ease. There are few fields in which Monkey people wouldn't be successful but they have a disconcerting habit of being too agreeable. They want to do things now, and if they cannot get started immediately, they become discouraged and sometimes leave their projects. Although good at making decisions, they tend to look down on others. Having common sense, Monkey people have a deep desire for knowledge and have excellent memories. Monkey people are strong willed but their anger cools quickly. They are most compatible with the Dragon and Rat.
