Grammy and Pa Come

 Grammy and Pa made it to our house and we are beyond excited! First item of business was to get out and enjoy the sunshine!! We headed over to the lake to enjoy a little picnic. 

 Duke and Pa were just so gosh darn cute!

 Throwing rocks at the geese. (They deserved it.)

 After community nap time we headed over to our previous ward for their Blue & Gold ceremony. Nothing says "Thanks for coming to visit us" like taking your parents to a scout dinner. The food was delicious ad it was nice to see some old friends. 

 Jakob was in charge of the Arrow of Light Ceremony as Chief Wannahuckaloogy. It was fun seeing him all dressed up. 

It was a great ceremony and a fun evening. Now it's time to get to work tomorrow!

Little Fish and Indians

Jakob is the Scout Master in our Ward. He really likes it! For the last few pack meeting they have had Arrow of Light Ceremonies. Jakob likes to make them pretty special (I love that about him!) So he dresses up as an Indian and I make the boys a mini headdress.

This arrow of light was combined with a fishing trip at the lake by our house so Jakob didn't wear the Indian costume but we did paint his face and he wore his headdress. 

The fish were biting like crazy! Some of the boys caught 15+ (it was probably the same three fish.) 

Duke had no problem touching them, so gross!!

Then E asked if she could try. Never have I ever caught a fish but since the boys were catching one right after another we figured she should be able to no problem. She picked out a purple pole and set straight to work.

 She had several bites but she wasn't fast enough to hook them. 

Then she caught one! She was so gosh darn excited and Jakob and I were so proud of her!!! It was a great evening and we look forward to our next fishing trip!
