I knew I wouldn't be able to dodge the draft.
3 boys.
Destiny.
Before I really thought about scouting, I was guilty of not appreciating what a great program it is for boys. Have you read up on it? Seriously, if every boy in this country went through the scouting program, our world would be a different place. A better place. No doubt. So, yes, I'm a believer. Yes, I wear my uniform with pride. I am a Den Leader, hear me ROAR! Ha, I sound like those obsessive scouters I used to laugh at (I'm not proud of that)--now look at me.
Brigham could barely contain his enthusiasm. Would I have his patches sewn on before den meeting? As you can see, I was so worried about it not looking straight that I froze. Look who's sewing now? Yep, that's why I married him. I know, who cares if it doesn't look perfect? I know, I know, I know. In all honesty, Ben wanted it to look perfect even more than I did (he's a loyal scout), so I told him to have at it. I hovered. Annie did, too. It was a group effort.
There's got to be some badge for that...

You guys look great!
That is awesome! When Blake is in Scouting, I am in trouble. I have no clue about Scouts. Now I know who I will call! :)
So cool, Nette!!
You have to let me know what activities you guys do. We are "Lone scouters" here--which means there isn't a group anywhere near us, so we do it on our own--David is the leader, but I need to help out more. I need some fun ideas.
The boys LOVE wearing their scout shirts--isn't it fun?!
Good for you and good for Ben. He looks so cute with that sewing machine :)
You'll be a great Den Leader! I'm very impressed by the Mr. doing the sewing.
You look great in yellow! You'll always be in scouts and I in YW! :) I love that Ben sews. What a well-rounded guy! :) Oh, and I still want Lincoln to marry Piper... he will grow to be such a great young man! :)Keep on keepin on!
