Roger's 40th birthday

I'm actually embarrassed to post this lame 40th birthday celebration.  This was on Tuesday night after open house events at school, and everyone was exhausted. We didn't even get a head on shot of Roger!  We went out the following weekend, though, and went to dinner and walked on the beach.

17th Anniversary - Destin

Roger had a voucher for a free hotel stay, so we took off and went to Destin for our 17th Anniversary.  We ate at a Japanese Restaurant, walked on the beach, and enjoyed a night away!

Once again, Troop 310 ran away with a lot of awards at the Camporee.

Visit to Topeka to see Jody

Roger and I flew out to Kansas for a few days to visit with Roger's mom, Jody, and to bring home a truck and dining room table.  This was our last visit with Jody and we were so glad to have some nice time together.  We took her out to the Tulip Festival one day, which she enjoyed very much.

Jody's expression pretty much says it all.  She really wasn't too happy with the way her body was failing on her.  This was right before we left, and is the last picture we have of Roger and his mom.

Halloween 2011 - a gypsy, a ninja, and Mr. Mayhem

Roger was "Mr. Mayhem" for Halloween (from the Allstate Commercials). He made up his own scenario which would be more applicable to the FWC and wildlife. It was pretty clever, but not everyone got it!

The sign says: "I'm a Florida Black Bear. The bacon grease that you left sitting on the counter after breakfast is calling to me like scent to a bloodhound, and your flimsy screen door just isn't going to stop me from reaching my culinary nirvana. Once inside, your kitchen becomes my personal playground...until you walk in and surprise me. Then I'm taking the closest escape route out of Dodge - which happens to be through your picture window. And if you named your own price with a cut-rate home insurer, you're most likely going to be stuck paying for these repairs yourself. So listen to 'our state' - FWC - and protect yourself from mayhem like me. Are you in good hands?"
