Girl Scout Campout and Bridging Ceremony ~

 We had our end of summer/bridging ceremony campout over the weekend, and it was a blast!
 The girls had to set up their own tents, with a little help, and then we celebrated our bridging ceremony!

After that the girls were free to play and have fun...and fun they did!



 Heres a shot of Jordyn wearing her Brownie uniform for the last time...now its on to a Juniors vest!  Im excited for her next step, but sad to see all those patches retire!  :)



 The girls enjoyed hot dogs and s'mores around the fire, and then we played music, sang songs and even told some stories!




 Hot cocoa was a big hit as the evening got late!





 The girls were up wayyyyy tooo early for me, but thats okay, there was plenty to do!

 The girls enjoyed fruit while Ms. Sharon made pancakes...and of course there was the rope swing and river fun too!
We worked on our outdoor skills patch, reviewing knots and pocket knife safety.  The girls all passed with flying colors and earned a patch.  Way to go girls!







 Then most of the girls headed back down to the river for more fun!  It was a little chilly, but they didnt seem to mind!













What an absolutely fabulous weekend!  We couldnt have asked for more perfect weather!
I love these girls!

Colors of Gold ~

 The colors on the way to school are at their peak, so Jordyn and i decided to take the new camera with us to snap a few pictures.
 She was so serious at first, but then she started to relax....
 I even got her to laugh a bit for a real smile :)
 My little 4th grader growing up fast!  I love you kiddo!  
Happy Autumn Everyone!
