CUB SCOUT DAY CAMP!

Back in the beginning of January we went to a little meeting one Sunday night with Eli and learned about what his baptism was going to be like, cub scouts, etc. They also talked about cub scout day camp, but you had to be 8 by the time the camp came or you couldn't go. Eli was very disappointed because his friends were old enough to go, but he wouldn't be. Right before the camp came I got an email asking me to fill out all the info for Eli - so I called the primary ladies to see what was going on and it was indeed a mistake and he should not be going. Then a couple days later I got another phone call from someone else asking us to fill out more info for him to go - and we let her know that he wasn't old enough. Well, he lucked out and since the ward mistakenly filled out a form for him to go and paid for him to go - he got to go! He was pumped. Bad news was it was the same weekend as the baseball All-Star games. We tried to make them both work as much as possible. He got to go all day on Thursday with Jared, Friday during the day he missed because of baseball games, but then since they lost the baseball game and there was still another 4 hours of scout camp left - I hauled buns over to the camp and luckily even though he didn't have his mandatory t-shirt with him, a very nice lady in our ward still let him stay, gave him $5 to buy something from the gift shop and brought him home to us at 11pm. He was exhausted and THRILLED! He LOVED scout camp. Since he had 2 baseball games on Saturday he didn't get to go back, but he loved the time he spent there playing volleyball, passing water buckets in a relay, shooting arrows, BB guns, etc!
