It's time for scout camp again. Kayden was so excited and could not wait. A week away with just boys -- no shower, playing in the dirt, getting to shoot a gun, archery, woodcarving, etc. -- heaven for him! Hopefully he brushes his teeth at least a few times. We told him there would be something in it for him if he did (along with dirty socks and underwear, and not coming home with clean ones!). He did not want me to come and see him off, and especially did not want me to take any pictures, but I did both. His friends were happy to let me get pictures of them. Oh, what a difference between boys and girls!
I liked this shot of the group of boys studying the map. Think they'll know where to go when they get there?
We are really grateful for leaders who sacrifice a week off work and away from their families to spend time with all these crazy boys. We hope they all have a fun week and don't drive the leaders too crazy. We'll miss this boy around the house and it will be much quieter, although we won't have to be on edge all the time wondering when he's going to scare us next!

He will have a blast! What an great experience he will have to play and learn and have freedom to eat ding dongs and doritos at will day or night:) As for the toothbrush...I'm pretty sure the only time it will come out of his bag is when he is back home unpacking-hehe!
