This year our oldest went on his first week long camp out with the Boy Scouts. He was really excited to go and eager to earn as many merit badges as he could. Highlights of his week were: earning the leather work merit badge (he made a knife case) and seven other merit badges, the hike up to an old mine, the "sailor" shower he got halfway through the week, catching frogs, eating camp food, and hanging out with his friends. It is a milestone for this mom to have her son gone for a week at a time...I was worried and did a lot of praying for him, but he hardly missed home at all and came back full of stories and adventures to tell.
I asked him to take pictures...
Some turned out better than others!!
He was pretty proud of sleeping in a tent for a full week! And he said he was so tired at the end of every day that he fell right asleep. But he is definitely glad to be back in his own bed!
