WW #98 "Girl Scout Troop"

My daughter's Girl Scout Troop raised a lot of paper goods donations at their school. They did this for about two weeks. And when they were done they had quite a collection of donations.

They then donated them to our local soup kitchen. And even had a someone who works there come into collect them and give them a little talk about what they do there. This picture even made it into our local paper.

I "hearted" out the other girls faces. Except for my own daughter which is pictured in the back second from right.

WW #82 "Horseback Riding"

About 3 weeks ago, on one of my Camera Critter posts,I mentioned my daughter was going horseback riding with her Girl Scout troop. Well I just received some pictures from her troop leader the other day.

Here's my daughter on a horse for the first time. She really enjoyed doing this. They also spent an hour before teaching them about horses (like what they eat, how to brush them, etc.)

WW #81 "Veterans Day Parade"

I just got back from the Veterans Day Parade. My daughter marched in it again with her Girl Scout troop. My daughter is holding their troop flag, which is cool, because her leader always times what girl is holding the flag. Because she knows where everyone's parents usually stand along the parade route.

Happy Veterans Day, everyone.

I Promised a Girl Scout I'd Vote

A recent project of my daughter's Brownie Troop was to get signatures on a petition. The petition was to promise to vote today. She had to get about 8 signatures on the petition, and when you signed it you got a sticker saying, "I Promised a Girl Scout I would Vote."




So I can't go back on my promise, and I'm off to the polls later today. I think I'm going to wait until my husband gets home from work. Because the kids actually get today off from school, and it will be easier if we all just go together. I'm also not sure how crowded it will be, and don't want to deal with the traffic, parking, etc. on my own. I just hope it's not that long of a wait!

So get out and vote!
