Front yard gardening and fixing

Fall is leaving us before we know it and Winter is coming. I always love Tulips and I finally plant them this year. The kids had much fun helping and even neigbor and friends visiting helped out.













 










Brennan is learning electricity this year at 4-H, Da taught him now to change new doorbell the other day.

Scouting for food and making food


This year the boys are doing Scout for Food again for Pack 1199. They got the street in our own neigborhood so I asked the boys to write down their names as the neighbor will know the bags are from them.





The boys then hang the tags on around 50 townhouses. 





Since they needed to wait a couple days before collecting food, we spent time making wonton at home.








On Saturday morning, Brennan has science class. Fong Fong and Clayton woke up early and picked up the food around the neigborhood. 














They were happy to help feeling the homeless. 


I also asked Clayton to draw a Thank you note and so we can give thanks to the families who helped this year.

2013 Trick of Treating

Another year of fun! The kids want to trick or treat in our neighborhood. FF wanted to be a giraffe, SS wanted to be a Karate kid, and CC is an astronaut.



The flaring of the nose! as Mama is painting a giraffe!



 





Click on the image and you'll see more details of the giraffe.


You think we have enough pumpkins?


The doctors in the house!









That's some serious kick!













The weather was hot and we must rush to all the houses to get candy, so the costume must come off to keep going!






Poor CC, he really didn't feel well. As much as he loves ToT, he had to stay home and rest while his siblings went out.


What we do with all that candy!!! Give it back out for which the kids are fighting to give out big handfuls!
