Several weeks ago Justin went to Baird Creek. Their task was to work on sensory details. Below is the poem that Justin wrote based on his experience there. He got really good comments from his teachers and I think he did a fantastic job!


I hear a spider in that dark hole

I see the spider web

The air is fresh

Fungus fells like a banana peel

Fungus yellow black orange

I see little bugs crawling through their tunnels

Moss like fur on a grizzly bear

Tyler practicing his guitar. He started lessons last Tuesday.


Tyler and his turkey!


Leaving Sesame Street Live - right outside the Packer's stadium. It started to snow!

Joshua at Sesame Street Live!


Bon fire at the pack meeting held at the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary. They were singing a lot of silly songs and it was really fun. I especially like the new version of Glory, Glory, Hallelujah:

I wear my pink pajama's in the summer when it's hot, I wear my flannel nighty in the winter when it's not. And sometimes in the Spring and in the Fall I slip beneath the covers with nothing on at all.

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah; Glory, Glory, what's it to ya? Glory, Glory, Hallelujah. Sometimes I sleep with nothing on at all!

(I hope I got all the words right.) Cute, huh?



Presenting the flag at the Pack Meeting


Study packet on the flag. I learned some things I didn't know - like a flag cannot fly at night unless it's lit up and that the American flag must always be on top if more than one flag is hanging.

Tyler showing his rock collection - it's one of the requirements. (keeping a collection - not necessarily rocks.) It wasn't enough to keep the kids occupied while the cookies baked. But, they had a blast in the hall way!


Almost done.


Baking cookies at cub scouts. We're now with the Aldo Leopold pack. We had a really good time.


The LOOT!


Awww! Ain't he cute!?


Joshua, Justin, and Tyler (he's hard to see because he's all in black - but, his eyes glow red!)


Justin, Ben, Joshua, and Ben


Joshua at the Zoo Boo


Justin, Ben, and Cody


The motley crew at the Zoo Boo: we have Joshua the Skeleton, Megan as the corpse bride, Maddie the witch, Matthew the firefighter, Justin the Crypt Master, Tyler the Phantom, Ben the purple Phantom, and Cody the Reaper - and if I didn't get the ghouls correct - oh well.

Bag of trash boys collected back in Baird's Creek.

Remember walking on empty soup cans and handles with thick yarn?
