Scout camp

The first of Aug. Curt and Brayden went up to camp Loll near Yellowstone. The had such a good time with each other and with the other yong men and leaders that went. This is my silly husband with his crazy hair wig that he takes with him every where. Brayden earned his canoeing merit badge.

Practicing his rowing technique, i think. Brayden said that the water is freezing there, i guess that explains why he is the only boy without his shirt on.


Cutting fire wood for the cold, cold nights they get there.



Listening and learning how to rapel. He did so good at this. A few leaders were so impressed and said he was a monkey and just climbed up the mountain like it was no big deal. He also earned his rapelling merit badge. I am so proud of him and so jealous of his athletic ability. I have none so I am happy that he just tries most things and is able to do it. I was glad that him and Curt were able to get away together for awhile and have some father son time. Too bad they were both gone the week i started a new job. I was really missing them both that week and really realized how much help they both are to me around the house and with the kids.

I wish I was more athletic too. Oh how nice it would be to have the energy I had when I was younger.
