N's Home!

Here's N just as he arrived home. It was SO good to see him. Let's get a closer look ...


... he's under all that dirt ... somewhere! I'm just enjoying the smile ...


Yuck!! I hosed off his shoes and threw away his socks ... a lost cause.

We sure missed N while he was gone to Scout Camp. He had a fun, successful, and a dirty time. He dropped his gear and his clothes and went right up to the shower. He completed 3 merit badges (environmental science, sculpture & painting) and got work started on 3 others. He didn't finish the swimming merit badge because the water was way too cold for him! We'll help him finish this and the other merit badges as soon as we can. I'm so glad that he had a great time. The assistant Scout Master was there the entire week with the boys and that was a comfort to me.

N gave his first talk in Sacrament meeting today. He was nervous, but he did great. He said that the chapel looks way bigger from the pulpit! We all know, huh!?!

I added which merit badges to my post: environmental science, scupture and painting. For the painting one, he had to paint a picnic table for one of the requirements!

It looks like you had a great time at Scout Camp, N. T is so excited for his camp but he has to wait until August. T gave his first talk on Father's Day. It is fun watching them grow up.
