Deep Thoughts

"Great things are brought about and burdens lightened through the efforts of many hands “anxiously engaged in a good cause.” Imagine what the millions of Latter-day Saints could accomplish in the world if we functioned like a beehive in our focused, concentrated commitment to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ." M. Russell Ballard October 2012 General Conference

Scout Camp

Cayden went to his first scout camp July 14-19 up at the BSA Del Webb scout camp at Kolob.  Don went with him to help him take care of his diabetes.  They had to leave super early Monday morning to get to Kolob by the 8am check in time.  They were up there a whole week.  They got rained on Tuesday so much that there were some kids that ended up having such wet sleeping bags and tents that they slept in the utility trailer.  There was also a lot of lightning that day they didn't want to tell me about.  Cayden worked on 4 merit badges, got his toting chip, worked on the Stake spiritual badge and had a lot of fun.  The theme of the camp designed by our stake was Armor Up.  They had to read their scriptures and some different conference talks each day and answer some questions.  At the end of the week if they finished all of the requirements they got a special badge.  Cayden also earned the second most number of points that the leaders were keeping track of during the week and he won a cool leatherman tool.  Don said that they had a busy week and Kent kept all the leaders busy keeping track of kids.  There were lots of prayers being sent up that week from this mom and the moms in this valley since all the deacons and teachers and lots of the men from our stake were up on that mountain.
