Embarkation Day

We are packing our bags and getting ready to head to the boat.  The excitement REALLY kicked in when the boys saw the boat pull in to the harbor this morning.  Shawn made it down in time to catch it pulling into dock.  They were starving but had to go to the port to see the boat first.  We got to see them loading the boat with all of the food for our cruise.  It was very cool to watch and see all that happen and how much goes into all of it.  After we walked the length we went and had breakfast at Tim Hortons & Fatburger.  This maybe our last opportunity to post until we return.  I will make an attempt to post something in a couple of days when we get to port.  If not, you will have to wait for our return.

Made it to Vancouver BC

Christopher Graduates PreK

Christopher had his Pre-K graduation.  He was so excited, he ran up to get his certificate.  He loved all the time he spent with Miss Ashley.  Next fall he will be in Mrs. Burris' kindergarten class and Noah will be joining Chris at OLMC and will have Miss Ashley.

They sang a cute song called Good-bye Good Friends:

See you later, alligator!
After while, crocodile!
In an hour, sunflower!
Maybe two, kangaroo!
Gotta go, buffalo!
Adios, hippos!
Chow, chow, brown cow!
See you soon, baboon!
Adieu, cockatoo!
Better swish, jellyfish.
Chop chop, lollipop.
Gotta run, skeleton!
Bye-bye, butterfly!
Better shake, rattle snake.
Our school day now ends.
So, good-bye, good friends!

Pack 85 Family Campout 2013

We took the cub scout pack on the first annual family campout on April 26-27th.  This was Noah's first campout!  They had a ball building forts with the scouts.  They even survived in the rain.  So proud of them.  Noah even went on a hike and walked the whole way!
