Ben started scouts this week. He was so excited to go. I think he looks so handsome in his uniform. He has only been a scout for 5 days and he almost has his bobcat badge. He has been working hard.
The weekend before his 8th birthday the cubscouts went to plant trees to help earn their world conservation award. They invited Ben to go. David was telling him that this is one of the hardest to earn and how lucky Ben is that they let him come help and he should be really proud of himself when he gets this award. Ben is so funny. He wants to do as much as he can so he can get stuff on his shirt. Which is kind of sad since not much goes on the cub scout shirt :).
Jacob tagged along, but didn't have quite as much fun as Ben because he was so cold. He is like me, he has about a 4 degree comfort zone when it comes to the temperature. David said he was a trooper though.

Ben looks SO handsome in his scout shirt! Even though he won't earn a lot of patches for his shirt, he CAN earn belt loops and these bead things that hang from a badge that is attached on the front pocket button.
I wish I would have done something for St. Patty's day. I did NOTHING. Not even a verbal recognition. Didn't even remember until this guy at the store told me I wasn't wearing green.
Long comment long....you guys are awesome!
Your kids are so lucky to have such a great dad!! That is such a great picture of Ben in his scout shirt! I hope Ryan will be that motivated!
Ben is looking so old! We were going through and organizing some of our pics the other day and came across some of Ben as a baby and toddler. My how time flies! I sure miss you guys!
P.S. Ditto with Laurel, your kids ARE so lucky to have such a great dad AND Mom.:)
You guys are so into the holidays. Do I remember that last year David made green milk and the kids threw it away before they know it was for St. Ptrick's Day? I love your holiday spirit!
Ben is the cutest cub I have seen since his uncle John...who was the cutest since Uncle Tim, who was the cutest since Uncle Mike! So, he's darn cute!
Agreed! You are the best holiday family ever! And...Ben looks so cute in his uniform.
