HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!

I have a million thoughts running through my head today.  However none of them are as important as saying THANK YOU to the people who have served our country.   One of my favorite sayings is “All gave some.  Some gave all!”   Remember those who served today.  They are still fighting to give us the right to be able to do the things we do.    If you see a soldier today…. THANK HIM (or HER)!!!  We have a policy in our family that if we can get to a soldier when we see them, we thank them.  They are doing a job I don’t want to do so that I can do the things I do want   to do!   Thank you to all who have, are, and will serve MY great country!  I love you!   GOD BLESS the USA!    GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!

Last Night

...we had our first Girl Scout meeting with the new girls that we recruited. My new co-leader is awesome! She basically took care of the girls while I had another parent meeting. I had to let all the new parents know how everything was going to work. (I hope it works!) Anyways, the girls had Game Night. I took Chasity's board games, card games, puzzles, and stuff to the meeting. I gave the girls 5 rules to follow. 1. No cheating. 2. No screaming and yelling. 3. No goodying the other girls when they won. 4. No crying when they lost. 5. Have lots of fun! They all abided by the rules! So...the Daisies earned their Blue (Honest and Fair) petal. The Brownies completed an activity for a Try-it. The parents will have to complete some of the other activities at home in order to earn the whole try-it! :) I have a couple parents that are going to be on the Troop Committee. I also have another parent who has decided to step up as a co-leader. That's great because I needed...
