On Tuesday we had our last cub scout activity before the boys go to Cub scout day camp. (thank goodness I wasn't asked to attend). To celebrate a successful year of cub scouttery and because all of our remaining wolf boys have summer birthdays, we had a cub scout birthday party. We made chocolate mint brownies with whipped cream, and played games. We ignored the sign in the church kitchen about only warming and re-heating foods, and had a blast. As the nazi den leader, I made sure the boys washed their hands and followed the directions. Part way through, one of the boys cracked open the egg, and out spilled two yolks! This was fascinating to see, and the boys loved talking about the twin chicks that might have been.
Sadly, this is the only picture of the brownies, but they were delicious. The boys saw to it that there weren't any extras to bring home.Also, I'm sure some of you think I'm a bit obsessed with my cats...but you can skip the rest of this post. For the rest of you, who care to indulge me...This was what Wesley got to do on Sunday morning.
We got clearance pet Halloween costumes last fall, and we made the cats try them on. Wesley was more tolerant than Skipper, but neither cat really enjoyed it. Also, whenever I take pictures of Wesley indoors, he gets major red eye. Because I have no photo editing skills whatsoever, I tried to spray paint over the red-eye in a paint document....Any photo editing tips/advice are welcome!
Skipper, looking thoroughly pissed off.
He does make a cute pirate.I guess that's about all for this post. Hopefully I'll stumble over something a little more post worthy this weekend to give you a break from the crazy cat lady side of me.

From one crazy cat lady to another, I love those pictures! Jeff wants to get costumes for the cats too. Like, big ruffs to go around their necks. :)
I didn't know you were a den mother. That interesting. Does it make you want all girls? ;)
Heidi- Absolutely it makes me want all girls. Although last year when we did cub scouts and sunbeams, it was more like the bishopric didn't want us to have kids at all!
Oooh, a Rogue Den Mother.
I LOVE it!
I myself have been known (probably more than I care to admit) to flount rules.
I hope Courtney doesn't see these costumed kitty cat pictures. They are so cute and it would be a given that she would start bothering me(once again) to get costumes to put on our poor, unsuspecting Sasha kitty
Google's Picasa has a great red-eye removal tool, and it's mostly automatic - and Free!!
Go get it!!
Wesley's the best BumbleKitty I've ever seen!
ha ha! I LOVE the costumes!!! Especially the bumble bee :)
