In all the ways you can, In all the places you can,
At all the times you can, To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can." -John Wesley

Cub Scout Family Camp Out


Last weekend was the Fall Cub Scout Family Camp Out at Lake Dallas. Initially we planned to only stay one night, but the kids were having so much fun, we stayed on Saturday night too (despite the fact that I was just getting over a cold and Kendall was very conjested!!) Ohhh the things we do for our kids... Anyway, the weekend was filled with bike riding, boat riding, fishing, flag football, singing, "hiking" (if you call running through woods hiking), roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. If you read our blog often, you probably notice that we camp often and can always find a reason to roast a weiner or marshmallow! However, I will admit by Saturday night we were tired of "camp food" and made a run to Texas Land and Cattle for steaks! By the time we got home Sunday morning, we barely had time to shower and get to church, but we made it. Afterward, I crashed on the couch for a 4 hour nap! You don't get much sleep in a tent...


Jessie snuggled in to the sleeping bag...

Kendall coached the flag football game - team Bama!!

Jessie and Gavin were stuck together all weekend! These two really hit it off!

Hey, is my lunch ready??

Heading out to launch the boat!

I think David got a little tired of taking these kids out all afternoon!

For boys, there is nothing better than playing in muddy lake water!

Listening to skits from the other scout dens...

Me and my boy cuddled up by the fire. I have to admit these are some of my favorite moments in life!
