The St. Lawrence Family: Did You Miss Us!?

I can't believe that it's been over a month since I've posted last! Things are just bUzZiNg around here. I was hoping things would slow down once school started. (Yeah right!!!) That has definately not been the case. (What was I thinking!?!)

We've been running at full speed without much time left to blog or even to finish my upstairs bedroom renovation project!!! I'm almost done one room though!! Wooohooo!!

Let's see, what have we been up to this past month...

We bid farewell to an old friend ....

We than welcomed a new friend... (Volkswagon Routan Mini-Van)

We've been super busy with Cub Scouts.

Shaun's been busy with the Trail's End Popcorn Fundraiser. (If you are interested in purchasing any yummy boyscout popcorn leave a comment or e-mail us!)

He held a Popcorn Kick-Off.

Christopher also received his Wolf Hankerchief during our Pack's first Den Meeting of the year. (He's the one standing sideways with the #49 on his sleeve. His friend Alec, who is a Bear helped him put on his Wolf Hankerchief.)

He also received 12 Activity Belts that he earned during summer camp. He was so excited!

We had a great time selling Popcorn at our Town's Block Party.

We also represented our Cub Scout Pack at the Elementary School's Open House.

In between trying to sign up new scouts, we had the opportunity to check out Christopher's classroom to see where he sits and what his classroom is like. Christopher has a great teacher and loves second grade! He's a 'super speller' and LOVES to read--like me!! Then we enjoyed some yummmy ice cream sundaes thanks to the PTA! :yummm!!!

There was also the Annual Norton Park All Scout Camp-Out a few weeks back. The kids were able to build rockets with Shaun and Pepe and then they launched them at the park that weekend. Super fun!!! It was fun to watch how far their rockets went!!

At the end of the evening there was a campfire ceremony, where Anneli sat with her best bud Jared. (Our friend/Cubmaster's oldest son.) She even fell asleep sitting next to him at the camp fire. How sweet! Then Shaun, Christopher and Anneli camped out at the park. Yes, I'm not a big fan of camping, so I went home and slept. I didn't want the cat to be lonely... ;) yeah, that's it....

I've also been busy as Yearbook advisor for Christopher's school yearbook. I help out at lots of the events at school as I take pictWe had a Walk-a-Thon one day before the chilly weather got here! The kids had a blast walking around the school bus circle, jumping rope, and playing with hula hoops, as they raised money for their school! Super fun!
