Last pack meeting of the year

Tomight was our last pack meeting, yay!  Can you tell I'm a little burned out on Scouts?

It was a big night.  Trevor earned his Arrow of Light and crossed the bridge into Boy Scouts.
He also earned the rare Super Achiver patch, which means he earned all of the 20 pins in Webelos.


Griffin earned his Wolf Badge as well, he is now moving onto Bears.

Mother's Day weekend

This was a busy weekend!  Griffin was in a Soccer tournoment with two games Saturday, and two games on Sunday.  In between the games Saturday, they kids had a birthday party to go to.  At the end of the day Sunday, Griffin's team had their end of the year Soccer party at the Aquatic center.



For Mother's day I got some beautiful trees for the backyard.  One is a Nectarine, the other a White Dogwood.  I'm super excited, finally our yard is getting pretty.   The boys worked really hard at digging holes for the trees.  They planted them Monday.

Dancing Trevor

For the last 10 weeks Trevor's school has participated in an awesome program called Dancing Classrooms.  Their school was picked as the pilot school for New Mexico.  They learned the Swing, Foxtrot, Rumba, Waltz, Merengue, and the Stomp.   Trevor has found a new love.  He loves dancing!  He is so focused, and confident.  This afternoon they held a performence to showcase what they have learned.  Each 5th grade class did a dance.  Trevor's class did the Foxtrot.


Hanging out afterward

They will be doing another performance next week at their 5th grade promotion ceremony too.

Francis Scott Key

Today Griffin dressed as Francis Scott Key for a report.  He said he looked freaky, but I lthink he looked great.  He did a great job with his presentation.




The kids were also asked to bring in a snack or treat to share as well.  We decided on this awesome Jello flag, since Francis wrote our National Anthem. It was really yummy!

Warrior Dash

Today Patrick ran in a super cool run called the Warrior Dash.  We all went to cheer him on!


It was a fun day!  Although it was just an hour away, it took us three hours to get there because traffic was super crazy!  It was all worth it though.  Patrick did a great job, and we all enjoyed cheering him on!
