Weekend Wrap Up

Busy few days. Ran around on Saturday, the boy had DI (Destination Imagination) a very big competition that they been working for the past 5 months on. They pick a category and try to solve the task in an inventive way. The boy and his group picked "How tHAT happen". They had to come up with a story that involves a strange place and an unusual hat. They have a budget, must use certain elements they make, have no help from parents and present the skit with set up in a certain amount of time. Ours went well but we did not move to the State's, but the kids had fun and that is all that matters. But we got there at 7:15am and the awards ceremony was at 5pm....

In between we ran out for 2 hours to attend an Eagle Scout Court of Honor. The boy read the 1st Class portion of The Trail To Eagle and I read 100 Scouts, in which we learn that only 1 of 100 Scouts ever reach Eagle. Some other interesting tid bits were that 85% of FBI agents were Boy Scouts and 26 of the original 29 US Astronauts were all Boy Scouts....

Sunday was church, lunch and Baseball tryouts...we also caught up on the Amazing Race (fantastic) and shopped for a new washer and dryer. We found a set but now need to find the money for them.....

No workout today, slept in as the wife insisted on watching the Oscar's in bed until 1am (we taped them) and my clock went off at 6:40am. I woke the boy up and fell back asleep....bad bryan....
