Our First Cub Scout





Here are a couple of pictures from September.... i guess the fall has gotten away from me. Anyway, Henry started Cub Scouts this fall and here he is in his uniform..... doesn't he look great? He sold over $1000 in Cub Scout popcorn this fall. When a cute young chap like this comes knocking on your door, how can you say no? Well, obviously they couldn't and he met his first year popcorn goal and won several prizes including a Marshmallow Crossbow (I'll let you know about that one when it arrives).

He is enjoying the weekly den meetings and the activities that are assigned during the week. They recently starting working on learning about tying different types of knots and he is excited about that. He also had a one month chore assignment where he had to make his own bed every day..... I loved that!! He was not as crazy about that one.

In October we went camping with Cub Scouts and had a great time getting to know the families in his pack. We neglected to bring our camera with us so we have no pictures to prove that Henry earned his Bobcat badge (the very first Cub Scout badge). He is now working towards his Wolf badge which he will hopefully earn by the end of the school year.

Attached are a few pictures of a Cub Scout project that he worked on with Daddy in early November. He had to build and paint a small wood-working project and he picked out a bird feeder. Owen made one too just for fun and Uncle Chris and Meghan were there to help too. Enjoy the pictures.
