Our Last Few Weeks

Life has been a little busy lately...
First Chase had the Space Derby with cub scouts. He had a great time even if he didn't win.



Abby had a Birthday and turned 11. Instead of cupcakes she took cake lollipops to school.



I tried something new for Abby's cake this year. I used gum paste to make the flowers for the top. I like the white on brown contrast.






For her party I taught the girls how to make a few different flowers using fondant.

Basketball season is still going strong, and taking up most of our evenings and Saturdays. It has been fun watching them all improve their games. KayLee,Abby and Chase all won their games this last week and Everett's team tied.

Clip it

We are new to cub scouts in our house, Our oldest boy turned 8 this last June. Tonight was pack meeting. The once a month meeting when the boys get the awards that they have earned and have some kind of activity that goes along with what they have been doing this month. My son being the normal 8 yr old that he is could not find his neckerchief slide so we looked around for a few minutes and still came up with nothing. So I turned to my cupboard and pulled out a twixtit clip and snapped it on. It worked great. Dad do you have one in your collection?
