The Great Camp Out

 We had what turned out to be the coldest weekend so far this Fall with lows down to 32 degrees. That didn't stop The Great Camp Out of 2013 for the Boy Scouts. Daddy and Camden were super excited to be spending the night out doors and looking forward to all of the games that were to be played. Tim and I spent the week getting up all the warms clothes we had for them and extra blankets. As Friday was drawing near I was becoming increasingly anxious about them and I just knew they would freeze to death in the night! I finally asked Tim if they would be outside the whole time. He just looked at me, blinked, then said, "It's a Camp Out, NOT a Camp In!" Hehehe!
 Camden had a great time competing in all of the games. He is trying to earn extra badges. I think he succeeded in Biking and BB guns.
Did I mention there was tons of food? Who doesn't like their cow cooked over a camp stove? This is 40 pounds of hamburger. Yummy!
                       Lots of great times with great friends!
We ended up with the Pack's pumpkin from the carving contest! It is proudly displayed on our front porch!
I must say I'm glad that I sat this one out! They wouldn't have liked my complaining and whining! I did contribute by washing all the clothes from the camp fire and they still smell like a camp fire! Sigh! Boys and their adventures!
