After church today, we went to Walmart to get the rest of what my boys need for camp.  The list they got from scouts was a long one.  I thought camping was living without a lot of things.  Here is the list.

2 complete summer scout uniforms

6 extra t-shirts

4 pairs of extra shorts/pants

8 pairs of socks

8 sets of underwear

2 handkerchiefs

hiking boots

close toed shoes

swim trunks

2 towels (swimming and bath)

sleepwear

1 pair of long pants

sleeping bag

2 sheets and light-weight blanket

pillow with case

sweatshirt or jacket

raincoat of poncho

hat

dry pack

watch with alarm

water bottle

fashlight with extr batteries

insect repellant

pocket knife

pencil and paper

Scout handbook

merit badge pamphets

book of faith

laundry money

spending money

camera and film

suntan lotion

camp chair

1 wash cloth

comb and brush

soap and soap dish

toothbrush

toothpaste

deodorant

Now that is a list of stuff.  I just want to know how they are going to get all that stuff into their backpacks.  But my dh is great a getting a lot packed into small spaces.  We went camping for the weekend last year.  If it wasn't for my dh getting what we needed, we would have went without a lot of things.  He thinks of everything.  You know a Boy Scout, "Always be prepared!"  I am so glad he is good at things like this, because I am not.  I either pack way to much or not enough.  See God knew what He was doing when He put us together.  By the way we just celebrated out 13th weddding anniversary!!! 

Hope everyone has a blessed day!
