Swamp Fox

Luke is writing this blog about his weekend trip to a cub scout camp called Swamp Fox in the northern Kettle Moraine.  He had a great time with his pack and his dad.  They stayed Friday through Sunday and got to do many fun activities.  Some of them are shown below.

Fire building.

Wood project - we built a train bank.

My bottle rocket went really high.  This is the water stream.

At BB guns I got 10 holes in the plate.

At pumpkin carving I cut out the eyes and nose.  My dad did the mouth.

It was cold at night but our red tent kept us warm.

Our troop walking to the flag to lower it.

Happy 7th Birthday Eva

I am so thankful for Eva every day. She is very loving to Hudson. She is very funny and loves to laugh. She loves to do the monkey bars by skipping bars or leaping to the 4th bar all at once. She has been doing great at school and is ahead in math and reading. She is very creative as she plays. She still writes me love notes all the time. We love Eva and are so happy she came to us 7 years ago.

This year was also the year of the American Girl doll. Eva had wanted Samantha and now they do everything together. It is fun having having another girl in the house.

Grandma and Grandpa brought Samantha a tea set and Christmas dress and Jackie got her two outfits as well.

Hudson loves playing with Luke and Eva. He starts looking for them to come home off the bus after they have only been gone one hour. He loves them.
