Buy Some Popcorn!

Cub Scouts are selling popcorn this month. Our goal was
$400 per scout and we are already over that.  Aaron loves
to sell stuff... he must get it from his momma!

Avery writes her name!

This may not be a huge deal to some but our little
lefty has been struggling to write her name but this week
she finally got it! We still need to work on the E but we
are so proud of her!

Dot Day

Aaron's school celebrated Dot Day on Friday.
Don't ask me what that is because I have no
idea but all the kids were supposed to wear
polkadot clothing.  Most boys do not own
anything with dots so we came up with this
shirt for him to wear.

PreK Tricycle Ride

Avery's school had a tricycle ride as the major
fall fundraiser for the school.  The girls and boys
put on their best cowboy outfits and rode laps
for pledges.  I made her a shirt and found some
boots at a consignment shop.  I think her little
cowgirl outfit turned out cute!

Grandparent's Day at School

Avery's school celebrated Grandparent's
Day this week by inviting them to come
for a short visit.  Avery was so excited
that both sets could join her for this special
day.  They showed a slide show of pictures,
sang songs, had crafts ready, and a snack
in the cafeteria.  I also included a photo
of our Bub Bub so we could remember
her as well.

GO Tigers!

It's football season here! Go Tigers!

Wolf Scout!

Aaron has started his 2nd year in scouting this week.
We are so proud of him!  This year he will also be joined
by his best bud Jackson and Cousin Spencer! It is going
to be a great year in Cub Scouts!

New Fish

A friend gave us this great fish tank a few months ago
but we never had the time to fill it up until this weekend.
Aaron's beta fish JJ (who we had for almost 2 years!)
died a few weeks back so it was great timing that we were
able to go on Labor Day to buy new fish. 

Meet George, Yoda, Rose and Violet!

on a sad note: Yoda as already bit the dust but we are
taking his lifeless body (that is currently in my frig)
back to Petco for a replacement!

A Hiking Surprise

While staying in the cabin we decided to go
on a hike and stumbled upon $30 in the woods!
It was a nice surprise for mom and dad who used
it go to on a date the next weekend! HeHe!

Bogue Chitto State Park

We rented a cabin last weekend at Bogue
Chitto State Park.  Pop Pop and JuJu were
able to make the weekend trip with us. There
are so many great state parks in Louisiana
and we are trying to stay at some over the
next year.  This park offered a great playground,
a water slide, fishing and canoeing.  The kids did
great on their first canoe trip! Thankfully it was
just an hour... the adults arms were starting to hurt!
We would definitely go back to this one for sure!
