Cayden's Eagle Scout project

Saturday is over and done with!!!!!!! We have been planning this day for SEVERAL weeks, and finally Cayden did it. His EAGLE scout project happened. His project was to paint the house numbers on the curbs of all the houses in our ward boundary. He (along with Greg and I) have spent many hours preparing for it. Saturday came and the weather was


PERFECT!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to all who took time away from their own busy lives to come and help us. We had 20 people come to help. Things couldn't have gone any better. We are thrilled. Now he just has to do the follow up paperwork and he is on his way to sitting in the infamous

"EAGLE"S NEST"

His mom couldn't be prouder!! Well except maybe when he actually gets the award. Way to go Cayden and Greg. Greg will have finally earned his Eagle, which he says his mom earned for him. Now Cayden is going to have to earn his when he has his own son. Ha Ha

Having some breakfast before getting started. Thanks to my mom for making yummy homemade cinnamon rolls.

Way to go! Congratulations to all of you, I know there was a lot of family effort required over the years to get where you are, or at least I will know one day.
