Girl Scouts - First Brownie Meeting!

Hope you're ready for some sprightly adventures. Tessa's a Girl Scout Brownie! Once again, we'll be documenting Tessa's badge-earning efforts here on Blue House School blog. This year, I am assisting our troop as a co-leader for Brownies. Our primary focus will be completing the Brownie Quest Journey. I plan to intertwine a few of the associated badges and whatever else I can manage to squeeze in. Our troop only meets twice a month, so Tessa will be working on additional badges and awards on her own time as well. She wants to earn them all again. Wish us luck...it's a lot of work!

Tessa sporting her new Brownie vest and beanie before heading out for our first meeting of the year. (Technically, it was our troop's second meeting, but Tessa was sick for the first.)

We were in charge of snacks. I had planned on simply taking Rice Krispie treats with decorative sprinkles on top, but then I made the "mistake" of taking a peek at Pinterest. Twenty-five dollars and four hours later, we ended up with Owl Krispies and a nest of Chocolate Peanut Butter Acorns. Ah, well...the girls loved them.
