Our Last Eagle Scout

After a lot of work and a little prodding, Scott is officially an Eagle Scout.  Actually, he earned his award in May 2010 but we have procrastinated putting together a court of honor.  Finally, we had a combined Court of Honor with 2 other boys in the ward.  We are very proud of Scott for his hard work and good choices.  He has had some excellent leaders who have helped him along the way.  Many of them have moved, but it was exciting to see them attend that evening.  A BIG thanks to all of them for their dedication and service.

Jed Denning spoke to all of the scouts and told a few of the many experiences they enjoyed during scouting.  Jeff Wheeler, president of the local counsel, also presented them a special patch from the Grand Teton Council. I made him a special pillow as a reminder of his accomplishment. His dad had also picked out an eagle picture for him and we had a walking stick carved with his eagle information.

We are also grateful for three older brothers who set such a good example of setting goals and working to achieve them.  We feel blessed to have four wonderful boys in our family.
