So long Cub Scouts

May 31, 2011

Today at pack meeting Tyler earned his Webelos award, Arrow of Light and his religious knot.  He is now done with cub scouts and will be moving on to the boy scout program.

Meredith is collecting more mother’s pins.  By the end of Tyler’s scout career, Mere will have a lot of hardware on that jacket. (Side note: that is Mere’s scout jacket.  She has worn it to all the pack meetings that Tyler has earned pins.  Where is the Dad pin?)

Tyler crossed over the bridge which represents the move from cubs to boy scouts.  After they “cross over” he gets to sign his name on the bridge.  Our pack does a great job!

I can’t believe that we are done with cubs!  This is probably a good thing as our pinewood derby cars have not performed too well!

  1. I don't get it. Excited to have a boy, but not excited about Scouts. Maybe because I've heard that it's actually the mom's who should be earning the badges and such (hence the Mom pins). Tyler just happens to have a super awesome Dad that deserves a Dad pin as well. As a side note, I had never been to an Eagle Court of Honor until I went to Chase's. I was really hoping that he got to squawk as he joined the Eagle's Nest. It didn't happen. I don't get it.

  2. Whit,

    I had to laugh when you said you were waiting for him to make a squawk when he joined the Eagle's nest. Makes sense right? That might spice it up a little.

    Cubs will be fun. Something tells me that Elliot will be all over cub scouts program when the time comes.....or maybe you will be the Den Mother!!!!
