It doesn't look like the sprinkler season will be starting any time soon so Mota decided to offer aeration and fertilization after several of our neighbors asked him to. This was a great idea, but action had to be taken immediately. I printed up fliers last night, stapled elastics to them this morning and headed out pushing my youngest two in a stroller. It took me almost 2 hours to pass out 100 fliers. 2 hours is a huge chunk of time when your day is already jam packed full. I had to make up the time somewhere so I cheated and bought cookies instead of making them...shhh. You see, I was the den mom in charge today and promised to bring snicker doodles. I knew exactly what activity I was doing with the boys too, I just had to get it all together. We made bird feeders with bagels, peanut butter, bird seeds, strawberry baskets and cheerios. The cubs all said they had a great time. After scouts my boys passed out another 100 fliers in a series of races. It only took them 40 minutes and they had a blast! I guess that goes to show...anything can be fun if you make it into a game. ;)
