HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Happy Halloween from our gang to yours!

Summer 2011, better late than never...

Here some mementos of our summer vacations this year now that I have them on the computer.

We went here and there, all over the eastern states. As soon as school let out, we headed to the beach, to WV, MD, and everywhere in between!

First stop was my mom and dad's house at the beach...

My mom is looking beautiful as she regrows her hair now that her chemo is backing down:

Rory became a "maji" at Magic Quest...

He caught a minnow in the waves:

We hung out at the pier...

The boys fished with their PaPa...

And caught a shark!!!

Arden was an awesome buggie boarder...

Rory too...

We took a state park class on the nesting turtles...

And just played...

Then we went to the lake with Grammy and DadDad...

Visited my Granny Eva...

And made it home to Asheville.

Somewhere along the way, Rory learned to catch a chicken!

Cub Scout PopCorn Sales...

I know that many of you were in the Scouts, wether it be Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, Brownies, etc. You know the value of the scouting experience, and you also know the cost... well to offset the cost, there are fundraisers, and for our pack the only one is the Fall Pop Corn Sales.

Over 70% of the proceeds from the popcorn sales goes straight to our scout pack and dens. It helps pay for things like Space Camp, Summer Camps, the badges, and all the costs through the year. These popcorn fundraisers are what make cub scouts affordable for everyone, and prevents our Pack from having dues.

That being said, you should click here and order a few boxes of popcorn or other goodies from Rory... if you don't like popcorn, you can order popcorn for our military troops over seas!

Here are a few shots of our den marketing this awesome fundraiser:
