Bill & the girls sat at the Texas table with the Walkers while Denett & I worked at the Soda Shoppe.
No scouting event is complete without a few games, cheers, and awards. Bill won first place for his age group on the snake game. (He had to eat a Twizzler's Pull-N-Peel licorice & swallow it without using any hands.)
There was even a photo-op for families. The pictures were printed there & placed in these frames. (This is a picture of a picture b/c our scanner doesn't work.) The evening was a HUGE success! I love being a tiny part of scouting... even if I come from a family of all girls & have only girls... it's fun for us to see what the boys are up to!*Wednesday was a preschool make-up day for Madisen.
*Thursday was a day full of doctor appointments for mom. I had a follow-up ultrasound in the morning & got to see our little girl again. She is really looking like a person now, she's exactly 4 pounds and I have 9 weeks to go. It was neat to watch her moving on the screen & to know that she is healthy!
*Today we went to the park- it was such a beautiful, sunny (70 degree) day. But of course, as the afternoon progressed the wind picked up. Madisen & I came away with our first sunburns of the season.
This evening while I was playing with the girls in the family room I noticed that Caitlyn needed a tissue. I asked her to go get one in the bathroom. She dutifully obeyed & returned with some toilet paper. I attempted to help her wipe her nose, but she insisted on doing it herself. (Big surprise!) Then she disappeared into the bathroom- for a trip to the trash, I thought- for quite a while. When I asked her what she was doing she responded, "I putting it in there mom." I went in to find this:
Yep, she was indeed putting it in there- the entire remaining part of the toilet paper roll was now in the toilet. Carefully placed in there one piece at a time by the girl in the corner with big brown eyes!

You got some great photos! Thanks for helping out! You guys were a hit! And I'm glad that my kids aren't the only ones to unroll a whole roll of t.p. recently!
The scouting thing looks like so much fun. I think the toilet paper in the toilet is a rite of passage for kids.
what an awesome blue and gold... leave it to kate.
and that toilet scene aint nothing on what zack has done... just wait until you have to call a plumber to get you out of the "mess"
caitlyn sure is a cutie
How ironic. Kaden for the first time was in the bathroom a little too long the other day and put the WHOLE ROLL of TP in the toilet. All these kids think alike!
