Ever since Landon and I got called as scout leaders and Tanner got a look at the Wolf Handbook he could hardly wait to be a Cub Scout. Him and Chloe go to den and pack meeting with us every week anyway's so he pretty much was, it just wasn't official yet. Then a few weeks before his birthday the Cub Master gave him the go ahead to start actually passing stuff off. Well that was it for him. Last night was his first official pack meeting. We were going to give him his scout uniform for his baptism, but we decided we'd better give it to him early since he was already getting a handful of awards. He got his Bobcat, his gold arrow point, and his swimming, baseball, and collecting belt loops and pins. He was so excited of course we had to put them on his shirt for him as soon as we got home, so the picture I took before which is the one I posted looks just a little different than what he looks like now. Chloe is a little sad that she can't be a scout, she is even sadder that she can't at least have a scout shirt. Since Landon, Tanner, and I all have one, and since I after all am a girl she doesn't understand why not.

Tanner looking good. Maybe Chloe can be a girl scout someday or at least dress up like one and pretend. Its good that Tanner is interested in those things before long he will be an Eagle scout
Way to go Tanner. I'll keep looking for Grandpa's Merit Badge Banner and his Eagle Award. We are so so glad that you like Scouts.
Love Ya,
The Grands Gentry
