At his last Pack Meeting, he was awarded the "Arrow of Light." This is the highest award a cub scout can earn, so we were very happy for him and his hard work.
The Scout Master made this very cool thing for Nate to display all the awards he had earned in cub scouts.
I like how the Scouts recognize the mom when the boys reach a milestone. It's like they realize, "Hey, if it weren't for mom nagging, this probably never would have happened." (I have four brothers who are Eagle Scouts. My mom did a LOT of nagging!) And yes, there was the obligatory "if you poke your mom we take the award back" joke as Nate put the pin on me.
Off he goes! Nate and his good friend, Conner graduated together. Their new leader, Brent Zollinger is not only my best friend's husband, but an incredible Scout Leader. They've already had several fun campouts and lots of fun.

Way to go, Nate! We're so proud of you. Noah is very excited to start cub scouts out here. Already going on overnight campouts? I hope they don't have a BA slide at your campouts like they did at your uncles (ask your mom. She will get very embarrassed). Congratulations on your big achievement. Good luck on the road to eagle.
Congrats to Nate on his Arrow of Light and going up to Boy Scouts! That is so exciting!!
