John helped Andy mow the lawn today and now we have a backup plan to our weekly mowing service. He was pretty proud of himself and he earned $20.

She’s Back!
Scout Wreaths
Troop 706 and Troop 523 are selling holiday wreaths again this year. If you are interested in purchasing, links for both kids are below.
John – Scout Troop 706 Columbia Missouri Wreath Fundraiser | Noble Valley (noblevalleywreathsale.com)
Laura – Scout Troop 706 Columbia Missouri Wreath Fundraiser | Noble Valley (noblevalleywreathsale.com)
Forty percent of each sale goes directly to the Scout. Last year, John earned almost enough to pay for his week at Camp Geiger.
Sales run through November 15 with delivery around December 5. The kids appreciate your support!
Marching Festival
The Hickman High School Marching Band performed at the MU Champion of Champions Marching Festival today.
They were the last band to perform in the preliminaries, and they played so well!
They won their division and made the finals, which was an even better performance than the preliminaries.
While they did not win the finals, it was still the best run through of the show that I have seen all year. Congratulations to the band on finishing third and also on a successful year! It was so much fun watching you this fall!
Last Weekend
While making cinnamon rolls for the Clarinet Section breakfast, I am watching the Hickman High School Marching Band perform at Bands of America in St. Louis. It is the last weekend of marching band for Laura.
Kind of Night
It is a Great Pumpkin Ale…
…and fire kind of night.
Fall Band Concert
Laura had her first band concert in nearly two years this evening.
It was great to watch her as part of an ensemble again and the band did a great job. Maybe life is returning a little bit back to normal…
