Fire Drill Monday

Owen woke up bouncing out of his skin this morning. "Today the fire truck comes!" Well, and the fire fighter, too. He insisted on wearing a fire truck t-shirt today and his red crocs. He didn't ask if he could bring a helmet again so I didn't mention it.

I think he'll get to see the fire truck twice - since he stays for morning and afternoon? Maybe he'll be napping for the afternoon one.

Jared launched his rocket yesterday with Cub Scouts. It was a beautiful day for rocket launching, though windy for sure. A few went onto the school roof and one went all the way OVER the school (though, that was one that broke into two pieces, so the parachute and nose went that far). The boys had fun and I got some fun pictures.

Soccer ends this week. Hopefully it isn't too bitterly cold on Saturday morning for our 9 AM game. Egads! My life becomes so much more sane after this twice a week soccer ends. We'll be down to just Cub Scouts 3 Tuesdays a month and swim lessons one evening.

Speaking of Cub Scouts - I'm in charge of planning November. The theme is "Indian Nations." I'm thinking a trip to the Museum of Natural History in Ann Arbor for the Go-See-It and building our totem pole for craft/activity. Oh, and we'll make drums one week, too. Fun times!
