Mark took the kids camping with Pack 37. They got to sleep in covered wagons and also enjoyed a Pumpkin Destruction Day.

The Rock Ranch is a farm owned by Chick-fil-A.

They even had monster trucks for the kids to ride in.

Lots of sights to see, including a tree growing right out of this truck!

It's such a beautiful place to visit.

The animals were very friendly.

The goat house was super cool.

Things we did this week..

Daryn wrote a poem.

This is what it says

"Love is a valuable thing..

You should hold on to it..

As tight as you can and never let go..

Love is like loving your family and friends..

No matter what happens the people that you love,

The people that love you,

Will always be by your side..

No matter what happens, they will always be by your side

during good times and bad times, they will support you in the

things you love and care about.....

Love is really great, it's the bond that's always around you and

all the people you love..

And it will always stay there no matter what happens.

~

I'm so proud of my daughter.

Here is another poem that I loved.

By Daryn:

I am from Manga and Bleach and fizzy Coke while I'm reading.

I am from the Vanilla Incense Factory that's always smelling great.

I am from the Rose bushes, Banana trees, and bowtie butterflies.

I am from movie night and curly hair, from Caiden and Jana and McMahel.

I am from the loud family and funny relatives.

From Santa Claus is real even at fifteen years old and the Easter Bunny.

I am from Trinity Lutheran Church from Florida.

I'm from steaming hot Pembroke Pines Florida and Pumpkin pie and blueberry muffins.

From the mother who knits a lot, from the brother who snuggles a lot, and the sister I fight with and the brother who never stops talking and the father who works a lot and the grandparents that spoil us.

I am from the middle of family pictures, always smiling, some with Santa, and some really great dance shots, oops, there's that smile again.

~

How great is that! I love you Daryn
