Madeline on the Farm

Today we went with Madeline and her Girl Scouts troop to the ever popular Pheasant Fields Farm. They got the full tour complete with the corn maze and then they got to pick out a pumpkin at the end. Here are a few pictures....

Going to the farm...... yeah, it never gets old. :o)

Girl Scout Trip to Skateland

On Saturday, Madeline's Girl Scout Troop went to Skateland for a troop activity. It was her 1st time ever going there. Here's some pics.

Getting her skates on.....

See, aren't they cute!

Whoa........

I don't know if I can do this......

Ok, I'll test the water.

Hmmm, this isn't so bad.....

Yeah, I got the hang of this!

Dancing queen.....

She had a blast. She said "It was the funnest thing I've ever done in my life!" :o)

I wish they never grew up........

Girl Scout Cookie Selling

The name of this post really says it all. Here is Kassie all bundled up selling Girl Scout cookies in front of our local Safeway.

Her and her friends even made up a song to sing so they could get more people to buy cookies.
Andy said it all when he exclaimed, "The person who thought of taking cute little girls and having them sell outrageously overpriced cookies was genius, just genius! Who could resist a face like that!" I have to agree, it was very clever.....

Girl Scouts

So a few months ago, Kassie tells me she wants to go to Girl Scouts. Madeline overheard her ask me, and asked if she could go too. So, I took them down to the center and I enrolled them. They absolutely love it. They are in different troops, because Kassie is a Brownie and Madeline is a Daisy. Ever since that day, they have been having fun and earning their badges. Now it's cookie selling time (YAY!) so the girls wanted to get their vests and display their badges they earned, all whilst selling the deliciousness that is Girl Scout cookies. So, being the dutiful mom that I am, I went and bought them their vests, and carefully applied their badges to it. Here they are proudly wearing their vests.

Aren't they so cute!

Watch for them selling cookies at a neighborhood store near you! :)
