There's a scout in the house

Griffen knew that when he turned 8 he would be able to join Cub Scouts and was so excited. The week before his 8th birthday he attended his first meeting. Each time he comes home on a Wednesday evening he talks about all of the cool things he has learned and how much fun he has. I love it!
On 6/20/12 Griffen had his first pack meeting and received his bobcat patch. Matt and Griffen had dilligently been working in his scout book so that he can reach the requirements needed. There was a nice ceramony to present his patch and Griffen was able to present me with a pin as well. Griffen was so proud and it was a great accomplishment for him.

The week of 6/25/12 Griffen complete his first Scout Day Camp at Flowing Lake in Snohomish. On Thursday which was the final day he said, "I don't want camp to ever be over!". He got to build a bug house and bird house, learn about reptiles, make fires, shot a bow and arrow, shot a rifle BB gun, and did so many other activities. Griffen's final words of the week regarding scouting "How long will it take to get my Eagle Scout?".
We are so proud of Griffen and can't wait to see all the patches he plans to earn!
