Yesterday we spent a good part of the day supporting Garrett in his Eagle project. He participated in our Stake's Emergency Preparedness Fair by running the Child ID booth. It was a huge success. He had hoped to do about 100 ID cards and ended up weighing, measuring, fingerprinting and photographing 203 kids! With the help of members from his scout troop, his scoutmaster, his sister, brother, mom and dad, we worked tirelessly for 3 solid hours. We were beat, but it was a great cause. Garrett was tired but felt great accomplishment when it was over. We went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner to celebrate. The paper work is about done and Garrett has earned all of his merit badges, plus 5 extra, needed for the rank of "Eagle". We are proud of him and relieved that we only have ONE more son to move through this program...hooray!
Way to go Garrett. Nathan is just starting to do his you are a great example to him. Miss you guys.
