Scout Camp

So this week has been filled with 11 year old scout camp stuff. We are so glad the camp out is over and now my fun begins, cleaning it up! Henry had some friends he shoots archery with come down and they did an archery demonstration. Saturday afternoon is dedicated to archey. There are 4 stations; arrow fletching, making a bow string, shooting (they shoot a stick and string bow at 20 yds.), and then the demonstration with Henry and friends. His friends shoot at balloons on a target at 20 yds., then they move back to 50 yds, then further back to 100 yds. (a football field length). The boys always get a kick out of the 100 yd. shots.

Henry always comes back from camp in a bad mood because he doesn't sleep. They boys stay up almost all night talking and laughing. Luckily a few parents stay down there and yell at the boys after 2:00am. Henry's deer brats and deer cheddar dogs are legendary in the stake! We just got a new stake presidency called in Feb and the the out going 2nd counselor told the new 2nd counselor that he needed to go to the Roxborough Ward at dinner time and get some brats. Every year there are more people to feed. It is actually really funny. I forgot to get some pictures of scout camp, ooops.

We also had some friends come to town from Jacksonville, FL, the Englands (Dave, Shauna, Zoey, Dave, and Ben). We went to dinner Saturday evening and then took the kids to a park to let them run around. Kyle is a big fan of the swing!

On Sunday we went out to Michael and Mary's for dinner. Kudos on the pulled pork sandwiches! It was hot so the kids ran through the sprinkler. Kyle is a fan of water and being wet.
