Pack Meeting

Palmer has been dying to be cub scout for a long time. In my old ward I was the Cub Committee Chair and so the boys got to go to Pack Meeting with me once a month and I had the Webelos for a while when their leaders had their baby and it was SO FUN! Palmer would sit in all of the den meetings with us and had a ball.

Earlier this month we got a knock at the door and an invitation was delivered. To Palmer. It told him to come to Pack Meeting. He turned 8 the day after Pack Meeting so he was lucky to come to it this month. We gave him one of his birthday presents early in honor of the occasion.
And he was pretty excited about it.
He couldn't wait to get it on and head to Pack Meeting!
Palmer had the biggest smile on his face as the leaders and kids came and welcomed him into scouts.
There is a pretty big troop of kids in our ward and it was so fun to see them all there in their uniforms.
Palmer was introduced to the group and was beaming!

This was the Cub Master and she was awesome. You could tell the boys loved Pack Meetings and they had so much fun! It was perfect.

I don't remember what this was, but it was a great shot right? There were so many fun cheers and skits. It really was perfect for my 8 year old boy.
That smile didn't leave his face the entire night.
Hunter and Lincoln thought it was pretty great to and they can't wait until they are scouts as well.
We had fun rootbeer floats for dessert and he went home happy as a clam. I can't wait to look through his book and work on the stuff with him. I think it will give me more ideas of things I can do with my kids :) We are excited for scouts!

Seeing the permanent smile on his face is priceless.
