I am just now blogging about the boys' week at scout camp. It is only a month later. My only excuse is that we have been BUSY around here. Between baseball camp, summer school, swimming and just life in general, we haven't let the grass grow under our feet one bit.
The boys' had a good time at scout camp. It was a good first experience for Ayden. He earned 6 merit badges (plus one partial) and will earn the rank of Star at the next Court of Honor. Ryan took some pics of the troop during the week. Ayden got invited to attend another scout camp in a few weeks with another troop. This summer has been productive for him.
Ryan and Ayden bunked together. I like to think there was some great bonding going on between them!! :)
A snap shot of our Bishop just after they arrived. The group had been up since 3:30am, so they were ready for a nap already!! Either that or he was contemplating how much "fun" the week was going to be!!
Ayden is the camp bugler and it was his job to play revelry to wake the camp up!! It was a very thankless job I hear!!
Ayden getting ready for his swim test the first day. He earned his swimming merit badge that week too.
He also earned his archery merit badge. He isn't too bad of a shot!!
He earned Pulp and Paper. He thought of you Papa Don!!
They had a sand castle building competition!!
Next year I think the troop is wanting to do a 50 mile hike instead of scout camp. We are hoping to still be around for that one!!
