This has been an eventful week for the younger two. Both have graduated to their next level in scouting. Clara's Bridging and Awards Ceremony was Wednesday night. She "received her wings" and flew up to Juniors. She's SO excited. She came right home and wanted to get all her new patches on her new vest and start digging in to her new handbook and badgebook. Her troop is planning an all-dayer at Holiday World for the end of June, and a weekend cabin-camping trip to Marengo Cave for July.
The Bridging Ceremony was very unique this year. We had a cook-out at a nearby park with a stream and bridge. The girls decorated the bridge with streamers and balloons. So when it came time to "fly-up" (as we say in Girl Scouts), each of our Daisy's and Brownies took their turn crossing the bridge to the other side to be greeted by their new troop sisters. It was so sweet. They were all just beamin'!
Connor's cross-over was not as "girlie", but still a very proud moment for us all. He has offically ended his Tiger days, and is now a full-fledged Wolf! Plus, it looks like mom is going to be leading his den next year. (I must be insane.=]) We're already planning a summer family campout with his den as well.
Our oldest has decided to miss his campout this weekend so he can go to his 5th Grade Graduation at church. That was a hard decision, but he said, "Well, I only graduate from 5th grade once!" lololol......I can't EVER remember graduating from the 5th grade!! But hey, there is pizza and a party involved here! =]
