Fall Fun

We kicked off the weekend with the cub scout camp out. There were over 1,000 people there…and the people were nice enough to put mirrors in the port o potties for us! Good stuff. I managed to get my tent up rather quickly by myself I might add. Friday night was fun and before bed I told the kids the great legendary tale of ghost Butterworth. This is a ghost story my parents used to tell my brother and I so it was neat to share with them. They really enjoyed it and cuddled me good all night. A kid on each side makes a nice little heater! Saturday morning we had to be up early so we could leave camp and make it to Britain’s last soccer game and Lawson had a double header for baseball. Brit scored multiple goals and was very proud of her medal she earned. Lawson hit twice and did so well he got the game ball! He was SO excited. We headed back to camp and Lawson got to do archery and shoot bb guns, he was thrilled! During flag ceremony they had 5 paratroopers drop down and land right next to us, it was amazing! Lawson said he wants to skydive when he turns 18 but he said I cannot go because he doesn’t want me hurt.  Brit was a mini scout and enjoyed playing with all the boys.Saturday night was a big bonfire and we had a great time and finished the night with some stories before falling asleep. Both kids were out within minutes. Sunday morning we took down camp and headed home, camping wore us out! But our weekend wasn’t over yet we headed to Pea Ridge to Mcgarrah Farm’s pumpkin patch and met Missy, Mark and Kennedy. We had a blast even though we got a flat tire…I guess driving in the field at the campout we picked up a twig. No bueno! The patch was AWESOME you actually get to cut your own pumpkin off the stem! There were hay rides and fun for all! To make the weekend even better Tadd started on his way home from New York Sunday night. We had an amazing family night tonight. I love our little family and every minute we are together! Today was picture day and Brit picked her own outfit…Both kids looked adorable! On a funny note Brit kept singing this song its a no no to kiss a whine-o..Im like what?> After a bit I realized she was trying to say Rhino….woosh what a relief :)
