Clean up those leaves boys! As I watch John and Andy use a kiddie swimming pool to carry leaves to our garden for burning, I think, “Wow, when did this happen? When we first bought this house, we had no leaves to burn. Look at those leaves now.”
Scouts!
It was a busy day of Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts as both Laura and John had events. For Laura, it was International Girls Day at the Kappa Delta Sorority House. I think this is Laura’s favorite event of the entire scouting year! She loves those ladies and they always put on a great event.
For John, it was his regular Cub Scout Den meeting. The boys got to work on their boats for the Raingutter Regatta. After painting the sail, John brought it home to finish drying.
I really, really enjoy watching these two in Scouts. They both love it and it makes me smile!
Camp Mudd Reunion!
Five kids all ready for the Camp Mudd Reunion (and dinner out for Andy and I)!
Homework Friday
Yes, Laura is doing homework on a Friday. I am not sure who she got that trait from because even *I* did not do homework on a Friday.
Fall Flowers
Love them!
Hermann!
Andy and I celebrated our 19th Wedding Anniversary in Hermann, MO, today with another great couple, Greg and Beth Van Hove. It was a beautiful, fall day complete with wine, food, and great friends. We visited three different wineries, consumed great wine, and bought some wine to bring home. A special thanks to Jeremy for watching the kids after school so that we could take our time and enjoy the day.
#momlife
I asked the kids to get my camera from my purse. That led to a five-minute argument between Laura and John about who would get it. I finally just stomped down the stairs to get it myself. As I came back up the stairs with camera in hand, John said, “Mom, I was going to get that for you!” SMH…
