Cub Scout Day

Parker's den spent the day at the boy scout camp.  They got quite a bit of time to play Gaga ball.  Parker was a natural at it!

Parker played a little soccer with his friends.

They even got some some scout requirements done.  Here is Parker's group practicing a skit.

The boys found this tiny frog.

Of course, there favorite part of the whole day was when we fed them!

Cub Scout Crossover Ceremony

Tonight is the cross over ceremony for cub scouts.  This is Parker crossing over from Tiger to Wolf!

This is Aiden crossing over from Wolf to Bear!

My boys adore Fisher and Bodee!

Aiden and Bodee after earning their wolf teeth!

 

It gets a little crazy with these kids, but it's ALWAYS fun!

Proud brothers!

Parker's den was almost all in attendance tonight.

 

After the cross over ceremony, our pack had a couple of flags to decommission.  It was very interesting to be a part of a flag burning ceremony.

Meals From The Heartland

 

Aiden's cub scout den volunteered at Meals From The Heartland tonight.

These are the hard working boys when we were finished.

Emery spent the night at home with Dad.  Apparently, that means playing on the tablet while in your underwear on the table.....

Pine Wood Derby

Pine Wood Derby and of course we found friends.

Tu Vien Hong Duc (Vietnamese Buddhist Temple Des Moines Iowa)

  

Aiden needed to check out a religious monument for cub scouts.  We found this Buddhist Peace Garden and a nice enough day to go visit!

 

Everyone enjoyed looking at the different marble statues.

All of the statues had different animals with them.  The boys really liked this elephant!

Holiday Cub Scouts Party

The boys had a great time at their Cub Scout Holiday Pack meeting.  Parker was not good at picking up the marshmallows with the spoon in his mouth, but he was full of determination.  He worked and worked until he finally got all of the marshmallows picked up and into the stocking.

Parker also received his Bob Cat ranking at tonight's pack meeting!

Popcorn Sellers

These boys did a great job of selling popcorn tonight, so Daddy took them out for a treat.

Cub Scout Crossover Ceremony

We have a large Pack!

Aiden received some of his belt loops that he has been working very hard on.

Officially a Wolf Scout!

Photography Belt Loop

Aiden decided that he wanted to get the photography belt loop for cub scouts.  Here are the photos he took at Jester Park.  I think he did a fabulous job of capturing our hike.
