Crazy Week

We have had a busy but crazy week. 

It first started off with Lizzy and I going to the park on Wednesday.

We usually walk or run or ride bikes to the Circle Park (really called Elks Park) to have a picnic.

We got there and hung out for about 10 minutes when they started attacking us.

You know who they are, the Crazy Crows. 

We were playing tag and the crows (4 of them) would take turns dive bombing us.  One would dive and then the other one would dive not giving us a chance to take cover. 

We hid under the slide and then decided we would eat.  They left us alone while we ate so we thought we would be okay so we thought we would try out the swing.  No that didn't work. They attacked us again and they were even more bold, only inches from my head.  Lizzy and I decided we would not be able to play at the park and would have to run out of the park and hope they would not hit us on the way out.

We ran for it and all 4 crow starting dive bombing us again.  The actually hit me and peck me.  It was so scary and crazy.  They would not stop attacking us.  We ran and ran  I felt like I was on the movie, THE BIRDS.  After about a block we were able to relax.Lizzy and I were able to laugh our heads off once we got away. 

YES, Crows are crazy this time of the year here in Port Angeles.  I am careful were I run in June and don't go down certain roads but I have never been hit before. 

Next time, Lizzy and I will wear bike helmets!!!!! 

 Thomas earned his Arrow of Light on Friday.  He was so excited to actually get a real arrow.  He loves scouts and loves going every week.  He hopes he can earn all the activity pins.  He is getting there. 

 After pack meeting my children surrounded the sewage hole in the parking lot to retrieve a toy that had fallen.  It was really funny.  They found a stick and attached a bandage (because it was sticky) to see if the toy would stick to the  bandage.  They sure tried hard but didn't get it.

 Then Chris came out and tried!!!!!

 On Saturday, my children veto hiking so we decided to teach Lizzy how to ride her bike without training wheels.  I am so proud of her.  She was able to ride without falling the first try. She went around for awhile stopping and going.  After awhile she tried her luck and went down a little hill and fell.  After falling she got scared and didn't want to ride but did great for her first time. 

 Isn't she getting so big.

 While Lizzy was biking the boys were doing amazing tricks on their scooters.

The other great news. . . . . .

We got a dog.

We will have pictures of her when we bring her home on Wednesday.

She is a Labradoodle.  She has curly hair and is chocolate color.  She is very calm.

Her name is Maggie.
