Igloos of Life

Last week was the Klondike, we went up to Cedar Canyon and found some good snow, 3-4 feet of it to be more exact. It really was interesting to watch the scouts build their snow caves and work together. Although I don't know that I help out a lot, there is a difference between the older scouts and the younger ones. The 12 year olds still have some things to learn while some of the older ones know how to take the lead and get things done. One of the other leaders and I had to scramble to get our Igloo built because we spent a lot of time trying to help the scouts with their stuff. In the end all the boys (8) slept in snow caves and 3 of the leaders slept in the Igloo. It was a lot of fun, but a lot of work, kinda like life. Hope you like the pictures,

Maynard!

I just read online from the Vernal Express about your parents' mission call! Holy cow, that is AWESOME! And your mom looks even more wonderful than the last time I saw her... Congrats! I bet as a daughter it's a little sad to see them go for a couple years but as a missionary you know what wonderful blessings are in store not only for them, but for you guys as you support them! Wish I could go to their farewell!

Hope all is well with you!

Take care!
