Can you hear me now???

Well it was a great start to the new year for Makenzie. After she recieved her $50 from her grandparents at Christmas and some money from babysitting on New Years, she realized she had an opportunity to buy something great. Brock and I discussed it and with all of her sports activities and other stuff going on we thought that now might be a good time for her to finally have......

After careful thought she was able to buy a trac phone. She purchased the LG phone, the first minutes, activated it, and made her first call to her best friend Paige. She's already wanting to decorate it and do all sorts of stuff to it, but for now she will just be able to play the games on it and use it for calls and texts. I think it will be a great way for her to learn responsibility as she needs to do her chores throughout the month and we will purchase more minutes for her each month. If she runs out she either needs to buy them herself with babysitting money or she will not be able to use her phone. I think it's a good start for her for a happy new year!!
