Other things that happened in May


Our school had a Disney Day. The kids had to pay $2 to dress like their favorite Disney character or just wear Disney gear. They will be donating the money to charity.  Tatti decided that she wanted to be Belle.
Tatti had her bridging ceremony. She crossed over from Daisies to Brownies.



Her troop leader this year was A-MA-ZING!!! They did so many neat things this year. The kiddos sang: I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee, then they were given all their badges for the year.They also got an adorable girl scouts back pack as a prize.  She'll be sorry to see it end until the fall. The troop leaders had their hands full with 18 kindergarten and first graders.  You wouldn't know it, because they were fabulous!!


Later, we all worked on gluing the badges onto her vest. 

Let's not forget Memorial Day!  Mommy had a bad head cold all weekend, but it didn't stop Tatti from picnickig!! 

 

There you have the rest of our random May activities!! What did you do in May?

Girl Scout Day at Knobels


We had a lot of fun on Girl Scout day at Knobels.  It's our favorite amusement park and we go several times a year.   It's free to park, there is no admission (you can either purchase tickets or an all day ride pass). There's plenty of shade and lots of seating.  And... the food is awesome!  Today was scout day. So, all scouts got a discounted price. The weather was a little cool, but nice.  Tatti had a blast with her friends!

              Waiting to ride the flyers.
 The Ice Pole (which is made of ice) outside of  the Christmas store.
 Driving the antique cars. Compromise= one steers and one controls the gas!





 There are so many special touches throughout the park.  A lion water fountain!  Barrels that are shoe shiners, a gingerbread playground for the kiddos. There is an entire little kids section and it's great. There are so many classic rides. They've been there since Mommy was a kid!

Here is Tatti coming down the rocket slide!


Ball pit? Yes, please!!!







 A pickle on a stick has become Tatti's favorite treat!

  We also always get a blow up toy on the way out. They have a lot to choose from and they are all under $5. It's a great little souvenir.



One last ride and then it was time to go. The park was supposed to close at 6, but they stayed open a little later.   Until next time Knobels.  We LOVE you!!
