Our Scout!

Thursday was our Stake Court of Honor and we were excited.  Ethan had finished his 2nd and 1st class ranks and would be awarded a bunch of merit badges also.  Bryan helped him get all dresses and he looked sharp!  The night before Bryan helped me put the merit badges on his sash and figure out where everything else went.  I didn't grow up with scouts and there is a lot of stuff you have to know.  It gets a bit overwhelming!

Courtney loves her scout brother! (Actually, she probably just wanted to have her picture taken but she hugged him so I'm counting it!)

Look at him!!  What a handsome guy!

His troop did the flag ceremony and he did a great job leading it and the Pledge.  I was so proud of how well he just stood up there and did it.  I remember when he was a little Cub Scout and they had them read it off a card.  Now they don't need it and they all did a great job.

Ethan was awarded 10 merit badges and his 2nd class but not the 1st class.  Bryan is going to find out why because he should have gotten it.  But it was still a great evening!  I am really proud of how well is he is doing.
