Cheerleader for a Night

On Friday Emma was able to cheer with the Perrysburg HS Varsity Cheerleaders. She attended the annual Cheer Clinic this week and was able to cheer for the entire 2nd quarter of the game. The team blew out their opponent. Emma had a blast for the 3rd year in a row. We may have a future PHS Cheerleader in the house. What a performer!

Hide your Checkbooks, Caleb's selling Popcorn

This is Caleb's first year in scouting. He joined Pack 209 at Frank/Ft. Meigs Elementry schools. I am lucky enough to be selected as the Den Leader for the 1st graders. For now we have 13 boys in our den and Caleb is loving it. He enjoys learning the Boy Scout Promise, salute, etc... It is like he has joined a "secret" society. On Friday he put on his uniform at hit the neighborhood by himself. He sold nearly $150 of popcorn on his first outing. I have to admit, it is hard to pass up a face like his while he is on your front porch. Once he hits the rest of Perrysburg he will most likely be ringing your door or calling you on the phone so watch out.

Hitting the Trail

Well after the first semi-full week back at school the kids and I went hiking at Sidecut Metropark in Maumee. The river was quite low allowing us to walk to Blue Grass Island to explore. It didn't quite have the same topography at the Niagara Region but, was still an adventure. We also were able to take Grace with us with her all-terrain stroller. It was a good thing because we maneuvered over large branches, across all sorts of rocks, and down some decent banks. We had a lot of fun and manage to hike 3-4miles.
