    Halloween Party 2011

    Some really good friends of ours, J & R, have a big Halloween party every year where each of their kids gets to invite 5 kids each, so there was about 25-30 kids. Needless to say they needed our help. Rob and R have become great friends over the past couple of years. R’s boys are in our cub scout pack and R is one of the Assistant cub masters. Although our kids are varying in age, you would never know. We’ve been over to their house a few times in the last couple months and we don’t hear a…

    Fill in the Blank Friday 10.27.11

    1. When I was a kid I wanted to be a doctor when I grew up, just like my 2 uncles. 2. As an adult, my dream job would be either a house wife, or after my kids leave home, I’d like a job to that travels, but like I’ve said before I’m pretty in love with my job now! 3. When I was younger I wanted to be just like 4. The childhood Halloween costume that I remember most was when I was a punk rocker. 5. My favorite childhood toy was Cabbage Patch Kids. 6. The time I…

    Total Randomness

    Although, a few weeks ago I was trying so hard to get my pics uploaded and put here for my 365, I’ve taken on a few new projects that have consumed every extra second of the day. I’m still working on my sister’s wedding pics. Yes, I’m going very slowly with them. I’m also catching up with old video clips that I’ve taken with my video camera. I’ve had to remake some of the videos because when I made the original movie I didn’t make the different sizes. I just made them strictly for web use. Anyway, hadn’t been too…

    Den Meeting {For the Birds}

    Today we worked on Wolf Elective #13. We first went out and looked for birds. We were able to find a few birds. The boys had a hard time being quiet, which scared away the majority of the birds. After that we went inside and made the good ole standby activity; peanut butter pinecone bird feeders. Bonus: eating the peanut butter!

    1. Something popular that I can’t stand/just don’t “get” is the whole Starbucks craze. I don’t like coffee and even if I did, spending $6 on a drink (that doesn’t contain alcohol) is just crazy! 2. Something unpopular that I secretly love is my Down comforter …. I don’t know if that’s unpopular or not … I couldn’t think of anything else. 3. When I’ve had a bad day I just try to chill out in front of the TV, or better yet, just going to sleep it off. 4. I’d prefer to be sleeping right now. 5. Something that…

    Steve Jobs 1955-2011

    There are so many things that I’m struck by that I want to write about, but the words just don’t come to me or if they do they don’t make any sense. This time, I don’t care. I’m just in complete disbelief that Steve Jobs, the founder and creative genius of Apple Computers has passed away. He always said, “if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.” He wrote is resignation letter on August. 24,…
