Going Through Life One Blog Post at a Time
From an AMAZING performance on the Marching Band field…
…that saw Hickman crowned Grand Champion…
…to the Homecoming Dance tonight.
Have fun, Kids! You have earned some fun with your friends. We love you both to the moon and back!
Another school year, two more school pictures added…
I know that Laura just started her Junior year, but the reality that the only space left is for her Hickman High School graduation picture makes me wonder how time went so fast. Time is an amazing thing. Sometimes, it crawls and you cannot wait for the next day to start. Sometimes, you beg it for a certain day to get here and you are so happy when it finally does. Then, time plays a trick on you. It makes you swear that you just dropped off your oldest at Kindergarten for school picture day and then you somehow ended the day adding her Junior year picture to “the frame.” Time is an amazing thing, but it is so damn hard too.
I tried a new recipe for dinner tonight – Sausage and Apple Stuffed Acorn Squash. I was skeptical, but it was so good! I will definitely be making it again.
Our Scouts had their Fall Court of Honor tonight.
As Senior Patrol Leader for Troop 523, Laura was one of the presenters for the evening, along with being recognized for two rank advancements, earning three merit badges, and receiving beads for 27 service hours.
John was recognized for one rank advancement, and he earned seven merit badges and received beads for 26 service hours.
Laura is now a First Class Scout, and I have two more pins on her side of my Scout ribbon.
John is now a Star Scout, and I have one more pin on his side of my Scout ribbon.
Congratulations to Laura and John! I am so proud of both of you!
I guess a normal-sized spoon was not big enough…
