The last few days of summer

We went to the Avenues Mall to do our last bit of shopping for school. After we got everything we needed we could not pass up getting a pretzel at our favorite pretzel shop. Auntie Anne’s Pretzels are the best. I am addicted to their plain salt with extra salt. The Cisco Kid loves the cinnamon pretzels. The Chief loves the pretzel dog. Right next to the Auntie Anne’s Pretzel stand there was a gentleman making balloon animals. These were the most elaborate balloon animals I have ever seen in my life. He was going on a mission trip and he was making them for donations. We stood there and watched some of his creations and The Cisco Kid was so excited to get a horse balloon.
He is working on the horse for The Cisco Kid. 
He didn't stop at just making him the best horse I have ever seen but he continued to make the cowboy to sit on the horse. 
The Cisco Kid hates to shop for clothes.  This made his day!!!
Amazing!!!

Keeping up with the Cub Scouts

Cub scouts is an all year activity. Even though we had our last major activity in May we still make sure we keep the boys together during the summer. We had a great pool party at one of our committee member’s community pool. Some of the boys didn’t have their swimming belt loop. This was a great opportunity for them to fulfill the requirement to earn it. We couldn’t have a pool party without food. We had a great selection of fruit, chips, drinks, and Pizza.


We are selling some t-shirt to anyone who needs one.
It was a hot day, and fresh fruit was so refreshing. 
The boys love their belt loops.  The head cub master went through all the requirements so the boys can get their belt loops at the first Pack meeting. 
Fun with friends!
My little fish!
We are looking forward to September when we could start Cub Scouts in full swing.  The Cisco Kid is now working towards his Wolf requirements.  I am going to be the den mom again and I have many fun activities to surprise the boys with.

Vacation Bible School

All week The Cisco Kid has been going to Vacation Bible School.  He is enjoying it so much. 

He is reciting his verses to one of the leaders.  Once he completes his verse he can move over to the candy box and choose a piece of candy.
What to choose? What to choose?  He loves his candy.
There is a contest going on to see who can bring in the most change, the boys, or the girls.  It looks like the girls are winning so far. 
He is being just plain silly!!!!
His friends!!!

Another change with my Shabby Chic Inspirational booth.

Yesterday I sold the Shabby Chic sofa table so I had to bring in some new items to fill the empty spot.  Over the weekend I transformed some items into some great pieces.
This creation of mine is giving me two thumbs down because I made great use of his young energy and put him to work.   
I spent ten minutes trying to talk him into giving me two thumbs up.  He gave me everything but!!!!
Silly, silly little boy.  Hummm!!! I think I should put a price tag on him....  
Finally!!  I got my two thumbs up.
