There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

MARCH 6, 2013: BLUE AND GOLD BANQUET

BLUE AND GOLD BANQUET
MARCH 6, 2013


The "long awaited" cub scout Blue and Gold Banquet finally arrived!!!
Daniel has been so excited to receive his Webelos badge and his "Super 20" patch! The scheduled banquet was cancelled due to a snow storm so it has been a long wait!

First item of business was making cakes!  Rachel showed her talents as she helped David make a "bear badge" for his cake.  David did the yellow M&M's and Rachel free-handed that bear with frosting!  I was impressed!

Daniel was quite excited for his basketball cake that was topped with 
Reese's Pieces!  Yummy!!!
