The first weekend in November we took all of our Webelos camping to earn their Outdoorsman badge. It was a great weekend. They did complain because we had some work to do, but I think they had the best time ever. They had to set up their own tent, learn fire safety and how to build their own fire, and basically learned how to take care of themselves in the outdoors. The best part was the cooking. They made stoves out of big tin cans, they baked a cake in a cardboard box, and even cooked biscuits on a stick over an open fire.
The weather was perfect. It was chilly, but not too cold. I loved getting to be outside. And I was really comfy sleeping on the air mattress between Shane and Hayden. I also love being the scout leader. I know it sounds cheesey, but I cannot believe how much they have learned and grown since we started with them in 1st grade. It's really exciting to think that I had some small part in that. And its also uplifting to see how close they are. Caleb has some true friends!! (even if they fight like brothers sometimes)
