Mitchell advances to Boy Scouts Gets Arrow of Light

January 22,2009

Mitchell worked really hard to pass off his requirements for his Arrow Of Light award. His leaders prepared a fantastic Crossover ceremony complete with a bonfire. The Crossover represents a scout moving from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts. Mitchell sure is becoming a young man!

The Arrow of Light award - carved by the older scouts.

A very proud Dad and a Mom trying to pin the arrow on Mitchell's uniform.

We had a fantastic bonfire to keep us all warm. It was a chilly night!

Mimi and Grandaddy were there to show their support.

Ski Trip 2009

First time on the Ski Lift. They both got off without falling!

Lindsey enjoyed going downhill with daddy.
We think she enjoyed laying in the snow and licking it even more!


Mitchell went down the beginner slope a couple of times and asked if he could go on the big one.
He learned really quick...next time he will have to master turning! Abby practiced a few times and was very brave. She went down the "big" slope two times!! Her mom wouldn't have done that when she was eight!
