Jackson was very excited about the Boy Scouts this year. A scout leader came to his school and told the boys all about the fun they would have if they joined. It’s all he talked about on the way home from school. Tris and Jackson went to the informational meeting and came back as official boy scouts. I’m not sure who was more excited, Tris or Jackson. Being a boy scout is very involved. They have meetings on the first three Tuesdays of every month, plus outings to earn badges. Jackson has officially earned his first badge, the “Bobcat” badge. He is very proud of his first badge. To see photos of Jackson receiving his first badge and attending his first activity (visit to a fire station) click here.
The boy scouts have already had their yearly fundraiser. Jackson sold popcorn in September. If you’re thinking you got lucky and didn’t have to buy popcorn…think again. We signed some of our dearest family members up to buy popcorn without them knowing. So get your check books out because Jackson will be delivering some overpriced popcorn to your door during Thanksgiving break!!
