Busy Weekend









We had quite the busy weekend. Saturday we went to the Cub Scout District races. Unfortunately the boys didn't bring home any trophies, but we had a good time. They had fun racing their boats and cars. Dorsan was in the next to the last bracket when he was eliminated. MU had their racing team there with their go carts and the kids were able to climb in them to have their pictures taken. On Sunday Boonville was having their community trash pick up day. The Cub Scouts came out to help and we picked up at least a mile of roadway and hauled of 272 pounds of trash. Some of the weight may have come from the skid plate we found. Yesterday 3rd-8th grade went on a field trip to KC Zoo as a reward for their hard work during MAP testing. I took the day off so I could go with Dorsan. I was able to sign him out so we could wander around at our own pace. We had some friends with us and had a great time. Dorsan loved watching Nakita the Polar Bear swim around. I think his favorite part was the Meerkats. They are kind of cute. I let him use my camera so the majority of the pics he took himself. He did a pretty good job. Will have to see how much he likes it and keep him interested. I did get a good picture of this Kangaroo that hopped out on the path about 20 to 30 feet in front of us. I think that was my favorite part. I didn't know that some of the animals roamed freely in the park. He really loved being able to take the pictures. It was a great mom and Dorsan day. Luckily this next weekend is an easy one for us. Only have to worry about Easter.
