Quinn playing

Quinn is blow drying his stuffed cow's fur.  I thought it was pretty cute.

 Collin and Hannah playing Prince Dauntless and Princess Winnefred in Orion's school musical "Once Upon a Mattress".  She had just put mascara on him...he really hated it.  In fact I had to go buy eye makeup remover late that night.

Funny

I think its funny that I never changed my summer pictures on the sides of my blog.  It's like winter never came!  I am getting excited to start growing things in the yard again.  Collin planted our peas and radishes two weeks ago and I have bought several packets of seeds.  Thayne needs to help me install the drip watering system in our garden and then we can plant more stuff.  It worked really well last year.  So far I have bought beans, soybeans, giant sunflowers and zinnia seeds.  Oh, and popcorn is popping on my apricot tree :)  Love this time of year when everything comes alive again.

Travel Day

At school the kids could dress up like somewhere they would like to go.  Hannah decided to dress up like a Hawaiian girl and we put her hair in a circle french braid.  Too bad the picture doesn't really show it.

Blue and Gold Banquet

I am now officially back into cub scouting.  We attended the Blue and Gold Banquet with Simon.  It was a Luau theme.  The boys had made leis and grass skirts at their den meetings prior to this evening.  We had Hawaiian haystacks and brownies and then watched the boys do a hula dance for us.  I looked at the 8 boys on stage and realized Simon was missing.  He is a shy one and was hiding in the curtains.  He didn't participate in any of the games either.  Oh well..it will come with time!
