A New Year!

We finally made it to the start of a new school year.  Can you believe it?!?!? I'm in third grade now and Sam is a first grader.

Here are our first day of school pictures.

Brothers - growing up too fast!

We had cub scout pack meeting this week too.  And I earned lots and lots of awards.

Mom is my cub master so she got to give me my awards. 

I earned:

* Bobcat

* Hiking belt loop

* Wildlife Conservation belt loop

* Music belt loop

* Science belt loop

* Good Manners belt loop

* Archery belt loop

* BB Shooting belt loop

* Astronomy belt loop

* Two Silver Arrow Points

* Astronomy academic pin

* Archery academic pin

Here I am with some of my Wolf pack friends - Ammon, me, Gavin, and Fistan.

After the awards ceremony we made rockets and had a rocket launch.  It was SUPER fun!!!!!!  Even Sam got to launch a rocket.

We got some yard work done this weekend.  We're never too old to help dad with our mowers.

We also got to spend a lot of time playing this weekend.  We got out the hot wheels tracks and raced for hours.

Here's Sam racing cars off the jump and through the loop.

Sam Alert:  Hey everyone - I've been working on my acting skills lately.  

First up - pouty Sam.  

And then - happy Sam!  Everyone says they prefer Happy Sam!  

OK - Sam out for this week.  Have a great one!
