Blue and Gold - Tiger Den

At the Blue and Gold Banquet, Zachary received his Tiger Badge! He loved going to Cubscouts and being with his friends. He is very proud to wear his uniform and liked adding all the beads and patches. Zachary participated in a skit about going to mars. They all spoke loud and clear and everyone laughed. Good Job Zach!

Blue and Gold - Bear Den

In February we attended the Blue and Gold Banquet. Spencer earned and received his Bear Badge! Spencer participated in an assaninations skit and it was really funny. He worked hard and enjoyed participating with his den. He had a wonderful Den Leader that kept track and was on top of everything so the boys could succeed.

Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, and Italy

In February we took a few days to see more of Europe. Our slideshow is linked below on the map. First we started in Austria. We took one day to explore Salzburg and then the next morning we went back into Germany to Berchesgaden. They have a fun salt mine and Spencer and they boys loved it.



Next we went to Lake Bled in Slovenia. It was cold so we drove around the lake, explored the castle, and took a short walk when the sun came out.
Our next few days we spent in Croatia at the National Forest. It was cold but we enjoyed every minute of being in the park. Our last stop was Italy. I wanted to get some pottery before returning home to the States. We took a day to explore Venice once again. The boys loved seeing the gondolas, bridges, and the winged lion.

Basketball

This past winter the boys played basketball again. They all enjoyed playing and had great coaches. It was great to get out of the house durning those dark and dreary winter months. All of them made baskets durning games and it was great to see their excitement.
