Girl Scout Cookies!!!

I know everyone probably started their New Year's diet this week, but who can resist girl scout cookies?!  We have three girls scouts in the neighborhood this year - Kelly Foit, Sarah Schulte and Julia Daniels.  So be on the look out for our favorite girl scouts selling those yummy cookies (at least they won't be here for a couple of months right?)!  They will be knocking on your door starting tomorrow!  And I know they would appreciate it if, instead of buying all of our cookies from one girl scout, we shared the wealth a little!

Thanks and good luck to the girl scouts!

Lakemont Luminaries

The holidays are here!  Be a part of the annual Lakemont 

Luminary Display, Sunday December 18. 

Bags of luminary supplies will be sold on the honor system Dec . 

16-Dec 18 at the end of the Foit’s driveway (560 Lakemont Ct).  

$10 per bag includes candles, bags and sand for 10 luminaries. 

Most houses are good with one bag of supplies.  

All profits will be donated to the Roswell Fire Department. 

As you walk through the neighborhood enjoying the lights, plan 

to stop by the Foit's driveway (please note, there was a typo on the flyer that went out - their address is 560 Lakemont Ct.) for hot 

drinks and goodies around the fire pit. They will be open from 

6:30 to 8:00pm. 

If you will be away consider enlisting a neighbor to set up your 

bags.  It is a great night for the whole neighborhood to be out! 

Questions?  Need your supplies delivered?  Call Kathleen Foit at 

770-518-2659 or Maura Roberts at 770-587-4343.

It's the kind of party Clark would support.....

Tis the season for the 22nd Annual Toys Party at  555 Lakemont Court, Friday, Dec. 2. 7 pm 'til whenever.  As always, it's a great time for a great cause.  

What we do is so very appreciated by Roswell's Child Development Association (and is now actually in their budget).  It should be illegal how much fun we have doing it.  Feel free to register that complaint with the Mayor.  He will be politicking near the back porch keg.

The rules are the same.  Bring a some-assembly-required toy (like a bike, trike, wagon, razor, hoops goal) and the tools you will need for assembly.  You will have until the movie "It's A Wonderful Life" is over to complete your toy before the hazing (and help from others) starts.  [If you choose to to bring your toy already assembled, it will be accepted on behalf of the kids, but plan to accept grief from the boys.]

In addition to microbrew kegs, expect quality finger food, like Greenwood's chicken, Nine's quesadillas, Alessio's pizza, Montana's wings, and our official vegetable -- Outback's Bloomin' Onion.  No desserts served at this all-guy function.  

Past firework displays by good samaritan neighbors have been heroic.  There are rumors that this year will feature a Viking funeral of three of last year's especially combustible X-mas trees.  [Garden hoses will be at the ready for the duration of this party.]

Feel free to bring as many of your buddies as you like.  Spread the good cheer.

Hang In There!

You don't have to wait much longer for the next holiday, Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away!  

We just wanted to say a big "Thanks" to the Archer's for hosting a great party on Halloween! What a fun night!

I also have some great pictures from our Pumpkin Decorating Day at the Flamers' (thank you to the Flamers' as well!) and from Halloween night.  I will send them out in a bit!

Thanks,

Beth, Kathleen and Maura

Caught in the act, great kids doing good deeds!

Some of the kids in our neighborhood were involved in a reverse trick or treat while visiting the Roswell Rehabilitation Center last week.  Please view this link for pics and details!

Nice job, Mountain Park kids!

Haunted Trail Tonight!

Friends,

7pm is go time!  We will have the kids waiting in our driveway, 580 Lakemont Court, while the little ones go through at 7:00 and the big kids following afterwards to enjoy a slightly amped up version of the haunted trail!

The Flamers' back yard has become quite a spectacle for evening haunts so come enjoy some Halloween fun on what's to be a beautiful fall evening!

Are the Flamers looking for renters?

NO!  But they would love an extra set of hands as the time has come to bring the haunted trail to life.  We will be working diligently Friday after lunch so anyone with an extra 30 minutes or an hour to spare would be greatly appreciated.

Seems our kids felt like they had the upper hand last year so this year we're pulling out all the stops. Come and contribute some time and energy to an evening these kids will be telling their kids about one day!

Happy Halloween!
