Jared's Birthday Weekend

For his Birthday Dinner, his restaurant of choice was The Texas Road House, of course! ;)

After dinner, we enjoyed these little individual slices of cookie cake. What a neat idea, the perfect little size, yet so very yummy! ;)

We were up early on Saturday morning sending Jared off on his first Boy Scout camp out. We were a little apprehensive, with this being his first camp out without Jeff or myself with him, but we knew he would be okay and have a wonderful time!

Just a few pictures from Jared's camera.

You can see their tents.. 

along with Scouts canoeing in the distance.

And we were right! He had a great time! As soon as Jared got in the car Sunday evening he was dirty from head to toe and talking non-stop about how much fun he had! We knew he and another scout would be preparing the meals during their camp out. He was not thrilled, but, okay with it. He did end up really enjoying it! :) One of his Scout Leaders told me, "Most of the new scouts shy away from cooking and cleaning dishes but he stepped up and did an excellent job!" Our Boy Scout is looking forward to the next camp out in a few weeks.
