Den Doodle

Here are pictures of the flag stand we made for our Den flag and also a den doodle. A den doodle is something used to show the progress the boys are making. This is the one we made. Each boy has an animal and a little plaque I made with a wolf paw and their name. Also they have 3 strips hanging down. As they accomplish stuff in our den we will add beads that I made and little charms. This week they will each get a little tool to hang on here because we will be completing a requirement with tools. We take it to our pack meeting where all the dens meet and everyone will be able to see our boys progress. I hope the boys like it, what do you think?

For Teri

My future daughter in law???

Donuts

donuts....yum. the other night well the night before our electric went off we were watching food network. they were making donuts from pizza dough. they looked so good. so mom says let's make a donuts, i say ok and we did. they were so easy and sooooo good. you should all do it.

just cut donut shaped holes in rolled out pizza dough and deep fry them. then cover them with sugar and cinnamon or powder sugar. yummy!! i like the cinnamon the best. fry the wholes too.

Mole

The girls caught a mole the other day. I started screaming and our neighbor came over and got it, it was HUGE!!! It was Nick's dad. He filled a bucket with dirt and the boys watched him dig. They thought it was great. The stupid thing has been tearing our yard apart. Ugly little thing but he was great entertainment for Ryan and Nick.

lots to post about but i have to down load my pics. we had a very busy weekend. cub scout pack meeting on friday night, uc football game with the cub scout on saturday and then lunch at kevin's aunts house on sunday. busy busy busy! we have another bust weekend coming up. school carnival on friday and a birthday party for 2 girls down the street on sunday. nothing for saturday yet but it is still early.

sonya is having fun in disney but sawzy is really sick. he is vomiting and they are trying not to let him get dehydrated. other wise things are going well.

i will post pics of ryan from the weekend, tomorrow. night night

YAY!!!!

We have power!! I am so happy. I have never been so glad to vacuum and do laundry and dishes in my life!! I have scrubbed down my fridge and freezer so I will be starting all over with a nice clean area. We got the trees out of our pool last night. I guy is coming this afternoon to clean up all our trees, branches and brush! My internet and cable is working great, so that is good! Well I have lots of cleaning and laundry to do....chow!

UGH!!!!

Still no power!! I am really getting sick of this. We are staying at Kevin's parents house at night. I go back to my house after I drop Ryan off at school so the girls aren't by themselves. This really getting old!!! Sonya just got her power back today but they are on their way to Disney. Mom got hers back about an hour and half ago. Maybe we will be next. Gotta run.

Fresh From the Groomers

Her are my clean dogs, all washed, trimmed and clipped. They may look the same but they sure smell better!! Oh they smell soooooo good. BUT they would not pose for my pictures today. they are such snots, but Mira gave Violet a kiss and I got it. Anyway these are the best I could get.

I am home all alone. Well the cat is somewhere?? Ryan is at school, Kevin just left for a golf trip with his Dad and my girls are at the groomers. I got some cleaning done and some scrapping. I have gotten about 12 pages done in the last 3 days. I am so excited. i really needed the down time, just me doing something I love. My scrap room is still a mess from when it flooded and we had to move everything out and pull up the carpet. BUT I have gotten a lot of stuff moved back in and decided to reward myself with some pages. I need to work on it a lot, hopefully this weekend. Ryan has another birthday party this Saturday and is going to Kings Island on Sunday so I should have some time.

I am going to be the den leader for Ryan's cub scout den. We had too many boys to have 1 den and no one else had the time to be a leader so it comes down to me. I have been doing so much research and training, my head is spinning. I have never even been to a den meeting before. Pray for me!! I need the help. I do have a plan now so I feel better. It should be a lot of fun for the boys. Just a lot of work for me!

Ryan is doing well with school. I kind of like the homework every night. We have a set time and that is when he has to sit down and do it. Most of the time he knows it is work time and doesn't argue. He has to read a lot and I am amazed at how well he reads.

Nothing else really going on. Chow !

Hanging out with Teri's kids

Ryan and Teri's kids get a long so well. It is great. It's weird you imagine when you are young and talk with friends about how your kids can someday play together and then it happens. Our kids hit it off just like we did when we meet. We are making plans to get them together more often.

Labor Day Camp

Here are some pics from Saturday. We had a lot of fun and ate way too much. The food was better at camp when we were there though. Ryan loved canoing and the carnival.

Beach Day

Last week they had "beach day" at Ryan's school. His field day was canceled because of weather at the end of the year last year so this was to make it up to the kids. Ryan was very excited about it. The kids really had a great time. i worked at one of the games, it was really fun. yan;s principal was in a dunking booth, the kids thought that was great!!

Wallace

Here is my newest nephew...isn't he adorable!

I have tons to post about and tons & tons of pics but no time. I will try to get some up later.
