Hello - it's a bit nippy

Took C. and family to Ikea yesterday - but are bailing on going sledding downtown and tubing with the Troop tonight. The high temp. for the last two days (and the next 5) is single digits - Today its -2 and a low of -12. Glad I didn't go camping (outside) with the Troop either.

C. is now the Jr. youth group leader on Sunday nights, And no I still haven't had a Sr. High class, everyone is "too busy". N. raced in the Pinewood Derby last weekend - a great Tiger made car - but it didn't win. We have a full complement of nerf guns now - and when I shot a hiding N. last week it hit him in the mouth and knocked out that troublesome front tooth - the one he'd bent back twice two years ago. C. told me to go down and shoot D. in the mouth to save us the cost of an extraction (which didn't happen).

S.'s wallpaper is up and came out good, pictures to follow.

Scouts update :
C. was volunteered to run the wolf howl (they do rank specific district events) in March - Program is all setup.
N. has earned his bobcat - we will give it out at the B&G.
D. (according to his Scoutmaster) has completed his Tenderfoot (and First aid and Swimming).
S. earned the same ones.
Day Camp looks promising - We will probably be at Lake Ann in Zimmerman - Dr. Baujin is looking into coming out for it. It will be Monday thru Wednesday June 16 - 18. They have traditionally held it in a park for two days, so we will stretch together.
