Scouts...

So, we were able to go to our first pack meeting as parents of a wolf cub last month. It was our blue and gold. We celebrated the scouting birthday with a big party. As a webelos leader (that would be Nila), my co-den leader and I got to make a game. The boys really enjoyed being able to play all the different games. Zane even forgot his shyness and introduced himself in front of about 150 people! I will have to take a picture of us in our uniforms for you all to see. We are excited for the pine wood derby. It should be a fun experience for Zane and Daddy. I think the rest of us will enjoy it too!!
