Elijah's first Pack Meeting

Elijah was so excited to attend his very first Pack Meeting. He had worked hard to receive his Bobcat and he also helped with the flag ceremony. Next month should be fun as it will be the Blue and Gold. He is especially excited to be in the contest where he and other males in our house(no females allowed) get to make and decorate a cake.

Bob Gee (pictured) mentioned that Elijah is the THIRD Throckmorton that he has given his Bobcat to...and hopes to be able to be there when Elijah receives his Eagle like his brother Joshua.

Do as I'm doing; Follow, follow me...

Noah and Elijah were out of school from Christmas until the end of January. In mid-January Brad had a few days off of work and the boys wanted to learn how to make cheese with him. My kids have ALWAYS been willing to follow Brad around and help with whatever he is doing. They had mountains of fun making Mozzarella- and it turned out pretty yummy.

Have a Seat

YEAH!!!!

Noah and Elijah finally are back in school after being out since Christmas. Today I got around to putting new fabric on our kitchen chairs. I didn't quite get the bar stools done, but this has been on my list for months now!

The dark brown swirls are the BEFORE and the tan squares are the AFTER.

Snelgrove's Ice Cream Parlor

When I was a little girl this used to be my most FAVORITE place to go! I remember my mom taking her Young Women or Merry Miss girls here for an activity...and I got to go along. I enjoyed sitting on the stools at the counter and watching the teenagers make the ice cream creations. I enjoyed sitting in the booths even more. My most favorite thing to order was a Hot Fudge Sundae. I LOVED it because it came with this itsy bitsy little individual pitcher full of hot fudge that you got to pour on your ice cream by yourself. I don't remember ever eating anything else there, but I am sure I did. If given the chance, I always ordered the hot fudge though. Wish I could take my kids there. Great memories!

So, does anyone remember eating here? I loved eating at Dee's!
