December Meeting ~

 Last Wednesday was our December meeting...and being December, we decided to take it easy and make it an all craft afternoon.  First we enjoyed smoothies and snacks, thanks to Oriana and Amber....yum!  Then the girls made holiday ornaments for their parents with the photos i took of them at our first meeting. 
 There were some really creative ornaments made, and i think all the girls had a good time....but i think they loved those smoothies most of all :)
Happy Holidays girls!!!

Holiday Slumber Party ~

 Last weekend, for our first activity, we decided to do a slumber party at the fire station!  The kids were very excited, and once there, they couldnt wait to throw on their pjs and start in on the fun!
 There was a lot of running and laughing...games and music...

 and we even made time for Girl Scout badges!  The daisies worked on their Lupe the Lupine patch, and learned about being honest and fair...
 while the Brownies had an art show!  Each girl hung up their work and talked about the different things they learned while painting.  There were pieces that represented emotions, nature, and the girls even used some new techniques...with shaving cream, painting with objects found around the house, like a spoon or a stick, and then they just painted for fun!  Well done girls!  This show earned them their painting patch.  Yeah!





After pizza and snacks it was time for...the gift exchange...

 Once the goodies were open, the girls decided to play with their new gifts and games...

 This headband game was quite popular...even the troop leaders got in on the action!
 Finally, it was time to wind down, so we popped up some popcorn, and watched the new Tinkerbell movie
 Until the movie ended...then it was time to dance, dance, dance..........



 and dance some more :)

 Okay, seriously girls...its time to go to bed!  The last few kiddos finally fell asleep around 11:30, and the room fell quiet to soft snores....ahhhhh, sweet music!
Not too bad for our first adventure!
