After dealing with influenza & bronchitis we all had cabin fever. So we loaded up the fishing poles, kites and kids and headed out. We ended up at one of our favorite places... Locomotive Springs. We love to take the kids fishing out there in the early spring because it is always a guaranteed good fishing day. We also love the 75 mile trek out there. A lot of dirt road, beautiful scenery and fun times. It was nice & sunny when we left the house but as we pulled up out there it was super cold and windy (a bad day for fishing but a good day for kite flying). I was the only one that got my pole out. After a few casts my hands were so cold they were stinging so Kelly and some of the kids flew Hayden's kite for a bit while me & some of the kids kept warm in the "burban". It was a good day.

It's that time of year again.. Cake making & decorating time for the Blue & Gold. Each boy was to make & decorate a cake and I was a little overwhelmed thinking we had to make & decorate 3 cakes this year but then was happy to realize we only had to decorate 2. The theme was also a hard one too.. American ABC's? Of course we put off even thinking about how they were to be decorated until maybe 2 hours before we were supposed to be there (being cub master & asst. cub master there were too many other things to worry about)but they turned out cute and Chet & Wyatt were proud.
