Five Years of Goebbert's!

We took our fifth annual trip to Goebbert's Pumpkin Farm today!

It was fun to come home and look at the pictures from the past five years. I have many of the same pictures each year and it is crazy how much Jeremy has grown! I miss that cute little 2 1/2 year old boy but this year's 6 1/2 year old is so much fun also! Our very favorite thing each year is to ride the camel together. You can see that there was one year that daddy even braved the camel. Usually he is the photographer and this year's camel picture takes the prize! An outing that we look forward to every year!

Our First Cub Scouts Family Camp Weekend!

2010 Family Camp at Tomo Chi Chi Knolls
Cub Master Glen teaching the new Tigers about doing your "duty to your country" by respecting the flag. The Tigers get to present the colors at the morning flag raising ceremony.

Tigers concentrating very hard on not letting the flag touch the ground.

"I pledge allegiance to the flag on the United States of America..."

Leaf rubbings with the Tiger Den.

Seven of the ten new Tiger Scouts.

They are a great group of boys!

Jeremy and me on our three mile hike. Jeremy completed the hike and learned many things about hiking in the woods and earned his Hiking belt loop and pin.

Jeremy and Devin...Tiger Friends!!!!

I took almost 400 picture over the weekend....these are just a few of my favorites!

We interrupt this program.....

.......to bring you pictures of Jeff's newest tattoos!

The first one he just had Jeremy's name added...as you can tell from the color. He told me on our first date that if we ever ended up together and had a kid that he would add the name to this tattoo. I figure since Jeremy is 6 it's about time! The second one????!!?!?! Well, I have no explanation for that one except that it proves the fact that my husband is CRAZY!!!!

Yesterday, Jeremy received these very cool pillow cases in the mail from a very special person! They are very "cozy" and he loves them very much! Then today at WalMart he talked me into the purchase of a book. He decided he would rather have the book than the vanilla ice cream or the Popsicles that I was going to get him. The book has not left his side since and he is sleeping like the picture above as I write this! He now has book number 2, 3, 4 and 5 (when it comes out) on his Christmas list. Yes...that is a tattoo of Comander Cody from StarWars. It came in a happy meal. He has a halloween skeleton on his other arm. Temporary of course.

Pack 267 Clean Up Day!

Jeremy having a little fun!

We picked up a lot of trash from the side of the road today. A great way for the boys to learn about keeping our world clean and participate in a little community service.
