Xander Goes to Scout Camp

We got back from Cincinnati Friday evening, Xander had football tryouts Saturday morning, and then Monday morning he was off to a week of scout camp. Since Xander was only 11, David had to go up each evening so Xander could stay overnight. I'm so grateful that David made that sacrifice because Xander had a fabulous time!
Xander heading out the door early, early Monday morning. He was all smiles!

He enjoyed having down time and just hanging out with his buds.

Xander said they spent a lot of time practicing volleyball to prepare for the big volleyball competition they had entered.

Obviously a lot of time was spent on merit badges.

He's in there somewhere.

Smiley camper boy.

Lots of swimming!

This was a game called Taps that apparently was a huge favorite played by the boys. David said every chance they got, they were playing it.

Some of Xander's favorite memories of the week were the delicious food, playing Taps, swimming, and placing 4th with Cole Wardle in the sailing event.
