Decorating Cookies!

Some to eat and some to take home

Takes some serious concentration. 

Oh the colors!

No cookie can have too many sprinkles!

The power of "yellow"!

After cookies there were stockings and trees to decorate too!

Band Jam- and then some!!

They did it all! 

Having fun decorating Christmas cards for our troops.

The guys were determined not to be outdone by the gals. 

Chris did a solo!

Preston did too!

The band gearing up

Singing sweet!

Rockin' Ryan!

Viola!

That a girl!

                          Band Jam was lots of fun! 
                                Wow! What talent! 
                    The playing, singing and cheering 
                 (yes we had cheerleaders) was great. 
Look forward to seeing you all again at the next "Band Jam"!

HALLOWEEN 2011

Everyone was in on the act

What a line up!

Story time with a whole bunch of 'characters'.

TEEN PARTY! NOT TOO MUCH MAHEM BUT LOTS OF FUN!

Girls having fun!

You can do it...just don't get it stuck in your hair or wings!

Decorating pumpkins and cupcakes

Looks almost to good to eat. Almost.

Oh Agnes!

Well, just goes to show how fun a box truly can be.

Games done it was time to head home...

And get ready to go trick or treating

Bats! Bats! Everywhere!

Everyone was captivated. The Organization for Bat Conservation did a great job educating the group.

Say "cheese" please.

First you cross their legs... then their wings...

and you end up with something like this.

Just "hanging" around like bats do.

Thanks to everyone who came out to see the bats.
Learning about things that can scare us makes us less afraid. The more we know the more we grow!

Armada-geddon pole decoration!

The weather was beautiful for Saturday's decorating of the pole. 
The teens decorated using two different themes this year. 

One a student who is "geeked" about books!

The other was a 'library witch' who will no doubt swoop down to see what everyone is reading!

Don't let either one keep you away from the library. Their 'scare' is worse than their bite!

Geek Continues!

If you haven't been in yet come on in and write what you "geek".

Look how our "geek wall" has grown!


We have some pretty interesting "geeks" around here. Someone loves housework- another books-
retirement, sleep and sand boxes have found their place on the "geek wall".

The drawing will be coming shortly. Be sure to come in and get your geek posted soon.

Back to school kick-off!
