Nov 2nd:
We had signed both Danny & Frost up for classes at the University of Scouting, unfortunately...Danny was now, because of our broken van sitting at our friends' house, not able to attend. Thankfully, another friend of ours was also going for classes, and was so very gracious to give Frost a ride, too.
We signed Frost up for the Youth Leadership Training. He has been our Senior Patrol Leader in our Boy Scout Troop for some time now. And he has most definitely grown much, and has really stepped outside of his box since taking on this role. But, as with any of us, he does still have much to learn. Hoping he picked up some good tidbits during his time there.
After Danny dropped Frost off at our friends' house, "the plan" was for him to get back to our van to work on it...which was just a few streets over from where he dropped Frost off...but, wouldn't you know it, the key to the van was left at home. Danny calls me during his 30 min drive back home to let me know that I would have to go with him because although he is very talented, he's not sure he could pull off driving both the van AND car back home. I agree...but only on the condition that he buys me some yummy cappuccino!!
After picking me up a pumpkin spice cappuccino, we had to stop into a couple auto stores so Danny could pick up what he needed to correct the problem with our van...well, one of the problems at least. Then we headed over so I could drop him off so they could get to work.
I was really hoping to lay back down after arriving back home, but opted to get online "for a little bit". Checked my facebook, finishing my blog entry yesterday, and a few other things. Next thing you know...kids started waking up...so I decided to just stay up. Did a little cleaning, and some laundry....and kept up on my facebook happenings!
Time to get ready for Mom's Night Out!! So excited!! Hanging out with friends is just so much fun!! Had the time...and didn't have to get any children ready...so I took the effort to actually get dressed up for the occasion. Had my purple and black sweater picked out to wear. Even did my eyeshadow in purple to match. But after putting on my sweater...I was like, "eh"...then switched to a red shirt...but didn't think about it until I was down the road that I still had PURPLE eyeshadow on. Whoops. Oh well. At least I did make the effort, right?!?!
Was a little disappointed when I was able to catch up with Frost about his Scout class from earlier that day. From what it sounded like, it wasn't what we were thinking it would be. Really hoping for a more in depth explanation and activities to show him, express to him, explain to him HOW to be a good leader. From what I got after talking with Frost...it was very much lacking...in my opinion at least.
Thanks for dropping in!
