Scout O Rama

This was our first ever SOR and it was so fun. It was a free activity making it even better. I took the kids. Then we all drove to Stockton's small airport to pick up Mike from a work trip to Vegas.

I think going on the boat was the best part or Caleigh volunteering to climb the wall. She's not usually one to participate in new things willingly. Especially in front of strangers.

But I think the kids highlight was going over the rope bridges. FUN!

Mile's and Griff making "rockets" to launch.  They didn't go very high, but were fun to make (just tightly rolled cardstock with electrical tape)







 The Rock wall was so cool.  I couldn't get Miles to go (nervous Nellie) But Caleigh shocked us all by going.  She was excited to do it.  And Griff went too.  Here's Tristan Chan, one of our newest cubs.

Eva Hixson!  Way to go!

Here goes Isabell Hixson showing up the boys.

Up goes Griffin, I think he got the highest out of our group.



Now "Goose" who knew she would love this so much.  She made it half way then couldn't figure out how to go higher so she dropped.  I'm so proud of her!



Oh, my Miles loves to talk about the army and the Marines (who ra).  Maybe all boys love guns and the thought of fighting.  Who knows?  But he was super stoked to hold this real gun.  Please don't ask me to name it.  And I tried to not get any of the ARMY guys in the picture out of respect to the Marines.  Don't worry Gpa, we know where our loyalties lie.  



Here's Thor the Stockton Thunder's Mascot.  Go Thunder!



We just can't seem to get away from boats!  Loved touring this beauty.  And learning all about the scouting program on the water!  It's a sailors life for these guys.  


And finally the rope bridges were a big hit.  All the kids went multiple times.  So Fun!!!
