We have an Eagle Scout in the room.

 So...actually, we've had an Eagle Scout for years, Marriner earned his award back in...1992? But Lige earned his back in January, and never got to have his court of honor. It was scheduled for March 15th. We all know how that turned out. That was the day after the kids came home from school for a "2-week break"...

Last week, Lige's Scoutmaster, Brother Scott, texted, "Hey, I have the day off on Wednesday, what if we do a drive-by court of honor for Lige?" So we decorated the driveway, bought some donuts (cuz they sounded good) and had a little private ceremony. Grandma joined by zoom and a neighbor cheered from her car. 

Here he is!

Here's our big crowd for the ceremony...

Pins for his parents and mentors

This is what happens when you give your 7-yr old the camera and tell him to take pictures....

Sitting down to a birthday dinner, and realizing we'd probably better take at least one picture of him without his mask on....

  1. What happens when you give a 7-year old the phone is that he takes a picture of what interests him. Is that a hatchet? Is it stuck in the log? Oooh, I wonder if I could do that...
