It was breakfast-baking Sunday. I made Egg Cups, Banana Nut Bread, and Refrigerator Oatmeal. I think Andy and I are set for the most important meal of the day for the next two weeks!
Busy Saturday
It was an extremely busy Saturday for the Kassel Family. First up, John had basketball evaluations for Upward Basketball that starts in January. He had to try on a sample uniform and do six, 30-second drills. He did a great job!
As soon as John and I got home from his basketball evaluation, Andy and John left to attend the Missouri Chestnut Roast. They rode from McBaine to New Franklin. It was a 40-mile, round trip bike ride and John did very well! Both he and Andy enjoyed the Chestnut Roast. I think John most enjoyed playing in the hay maze while Andy enjoyed sampling the different spirits from Wood Hat Spirits…
Meanwhile, I took Laura to Girl Scout Fall Fest! She got to spend time with lots of other Girl Scouts, do crafts, exchange SWAPS, have dinner around a campfire, and just enjoy herself.
In the meantime, Andy and John arrived home from the Missouri Chestnut Roast. I saw them for about 45 minutes before they headed off to attend the annual Van Hove Hayride and Bonfire. I picked up Laura from Fall Fest and took her to the Dothage Fun Complex for Kathryn’s 10th Birthday Sleepover. I spent the evening by the fire pit while Laura played with all her friends. It was a great, but busy day! Time to sleep now…
Research
The fall cast of the Ridgeway Elementary Drama Club did some research about their upcoming play today after school. The group watched the Wizard of Oz! Laura really enjoyed the movie and is looking forward to playing Dorothy #2 in December.
Cub Scout Pack Meeting
John’s Cub Scout Pack had an interesting topic at their meeting this evening – BATS! Yes, bats. A woman who rescues bats brought a brown bat and black bat and did a presentation for the boys. John was most excited because he got to pet and feed a bat. He said, “Mom, it was a really, super fun meeting, and bats are cool.” Enough said.
Wizard of Oz
Laura auditioned for a role in the Wizard of Oz today after school. She was excited to find out that she will be Dorothy #2! Congratulations Laura!
