Croptoberfest

A weekend of scrapbooking with some fabulous ladies.  Twice a year we get away and scrapbook.  This year I made Miss Karen’s album, made my calendar pages, two Christmas cards, and several pages for the 2009 album.  Friday was not the best start to this usually quite relaxing weekend.  After dropping off my stuff I went home to take Mom to see Dr. McCready.  She had a great report and we were out of the office early.  So I got back to Camp Camby.  After selecting Miss Karen’s album and making one page, Jeremy called me to come home because we had a significant leak in the kitchen.  He had to tear up half of our kitchen floor.  So I spent Friday night looking at cabinets and dishwashers on the internet.  Fortunately our cabinets sit about 1/4 inch off the floor, so they were not damaged.  My kitchen cabinets are old, but I love them.  So Saturday morning I get up early and I am back to the retreat by 6am.  So a full day of scrapbooking!  Sunday morning I sleep in a little and have yummy waffles for breakfast.  After breakfast Carrie crowns me Scrapbooking Queen because of my organizational skills =)  After lunch I pack up and head home.  A fabulous weekend–looking forward to the Winter Retreat in February!

Cub Scouts Circuit of Fun

Curtis is now old enough to join the Cub Scouts.  He is having a blast!  Today we went over to the Track for Cub Scouts Day at the Track.  Curtis was able to shoot a BB gun, shoot a bottle up in the air using air, drive a RC monster truck in a race, use a marshmallow gun and bow.  After all the fun at the Track, Curtis marched in the parade for the Speedway Spectacular.  He held a banner for one of the cars driving in the parade.  Once we got to Leonard Park, Curtis was able to play a variety of games.
