August started in the very best way possible - camping with our neighbors!!! The boys look forward to this all year and have been heard saying they love it better than Christmas!! Between Kool Aid, scooters, tubing and scones, this truly is one of our favorite places to be!! I even got up and ran by the river this year, it was gorgeous!
The boys worked hard this summer earning their scouting awards. Benjamin earned his wolf...And Jacob earned his Webeloes award and his Arrow of Light. We have the best cub master ever, who came up with some great games for after the awards ceremony!!
We ended the summer by celebrating Benjamin's 9th birthday. We had a lot of fun at "Airborne" and cupcakes with cousin Shayla. We celebrated all week and ended with the Farming Game and cupcakes with Brigham cousins and Grandpa and Grandma on Sunday! He loved it and we love having Ben in our family!
Benjamin also came up with "The Awesome Club" in which he and his brothers earned badges this summer. I think this was "Calvin" inspired, but it was very cute. He made badges out of bottle caps (which we had to buy sodas and drink - win/win situation.) Fun Kids!
