Finally the last post.

Laura's class had to decorate pumpkins as a storybook character. She chose the Cat in the Hat. I think he turned out quite well.

Fall Festival

The scouts had a fall festival in hopes to raise some money. The kids got to wear their halloween costumes. Sorry about the blurry pictures. For some reason whenever Chad takes pictures they turn out blurry. He must not be holding his mouth right.


Paul was Ben 10, Laura was a black cat, Joseph was batman.

Mom and Me

It was a pirate theme this year. Paul and Ross did not want to do the activities this year. So we mainly just sat around camp. They both said that they had a good time. This year they had made a bowling lane and they could earn a beltloop. The Paris bowling alley gave them old pins and balls to use. I think we need one in our back yard.
One of the few activities Paul wanted to do was the monkey bridge.
The theme for Dad and Lad is going to be a pirate theme too. The patches for both are supposed to link together to form a picture. Pretty cool concept. Only one more year of Mom and Me left.

A little bit of every day life

Joseph making pizzas from english muffins.







Laura's class had to make an apple person. We made an apple bird instead.





The scouts raised the flag at the football game.
