Cub Scout Cross Over Camp

Ben's Cub Scout Pack had their annual cross over camp at Camp Miakonda. Adam took both boys to camp overnight Friday and the ceremony was Saturday evening (yes, you read that right, I had a whole night and day to myself!). The boys had a great time during their cross over, playing games, singing songs, a little ceremony. We even had a bald eagle fly over during the ceremony (sorry, no picture). Ben is now officially a Wolf Cub Scout. 

Beautiful Butterflies

Our original destination for our last Mommy and Nick day was actually the butterfly house. But, when we originally pulled up at 11am, there were zero parking spots and about 100 kids on site, so we decided to kill some time at Oak Openings and then try the butterfly house again. It was a good plan, all around. Nick and I got there just after the 85, not 100, school kids left, and had the whole place to ourselves. And no one threw up this time (unlike the last time we tried to go). Nick and I enjoyed some quiet time with the pretty butterflies. 

Last Mommy and Nick Day

It was Nick and I's last mommy and Nick day :(  I was sad. We celebrated by going to Oak Openings and doing an impromptu photo shoot to commemorate the day. It was actually Nick's idea to take pictures. And he set up several of the shots. We had to get creative because I hadn't brought a tripod. 

A Wild Time at Scouts

For the last pack meeting of the school year, the boys had a special guest, the reptile guy! Needless to say, he was a huge hit. He had turtles, snakes, lizards - all sorts of super fun animals. The kids all loved it. 

Tower Builder

He does love him some wooden blocks!

Happy Mother's Day!

My annual mother's day pictures. Adam had to work all day, so John took pity on me and fed me (and the boys) a delicious dinner!

Happy Birthday, Eva!

We headed to Cleveland for Eva's 4th birthday, a My Little Pony party! The boys had lots of fun playing outside and with the girls' jeep. The battery couldn't keep up, so we used Ben power to move it around the yard.
