Kyle had his first cub scout camping event this weekend...except we skipped the crammed in a tent, sleeping on a half-full air mattress, walking to the outhouse in the middle of the night part of the camping! We did, on the other hand, take full advantage of the cool air, BB gun shooting, campfire making, s'more eating part! I loved it...I loved seeing the boys going full on into the fresh air, loved seeing Kyle take his first shots with a BB gun and a bow and arrow. I had a few meltdown moments when Kyle would get into a tangle with another boy over a STICK (for goodness sake, the forest of full of them...what's so special about that one?!?!?) but all in all, I was crazy about the whole day! At one point I found myself watching all those boys gathered around the still unlit campfire (they wanted to light it at like 2:30 in the afternoon) and they were all tired and dirty, but they were quietly talking amongst themselves and there was just this glow around them...a happy moment that no camera would ever catch and I was just thankful to have at least caught a glimpse of the glow.

Thank you all for your concern over the state of David's company and the possibility of another move, but for now, it all seems to be okay. We're going to go forward with our lives in Augusta and know that when the time comes for whatever is next for us, we'll be ready!
