Salute the Flag

JD participated in the flag ceremony at last night's cub scout meeting.  He looks so handsome in his new brown Webelos shirt!

Cold and Wet

It was a cold damp weekend to set up camp but we did it anyway!  I think we deserve cub scout extra credit for braving the elements and spending the weekend with little boys in a muddy campsite.  This was actually our neighbor's fire.  Dave earned his Eagle Scout award as a boy and is the rock star of our Pack. THANKS Dave for sharing  your fire with our cold little boy.  JD's shoes were so bad when we got home they went straight into the trash can and didn't even make it into the house.  He had fun --- George and I lived to tell the tale.

The Pledge of Allegance

JD recited the Pledge of Allegance at morning assembly this week.  Ready pledge . . . .

Play Ball

It has been a long weekend of baseball.

 JD has been throwing . . .

 . . . and he has been batting.  (I won't say hitting yet -- although he is trying!)

 AND FINALLY  -- the championship game.

 JD's team WON!!! 

The weekend involved finishing a game that had been rained out earlier in the week, two games that went into extra innings, and one AMAZING come from behind victory.  Kudos to out coaches Matt and Jason for helping these boys learn some of what makes baseball so fun!
