Lions and javelinas and BEARs, oh my!

 Okay, so there were no lions but we did have a javelina in our front yard this past week.  Crazy but it fits in with all the other weird things we have seen the past two years since we have lived here.  According the the neighbor kids about 5 houses down they see them all the time.  I wish I would have taken a picture of it.  And we definately have a bear!  Alden is just a couple months away from turning 10 and moving up to the webelos group but he already earned his Bear patch, 1 gold and 2 silver arrows.  He is really loving scouts and is doing great.  He has great leaders and a bunch of really good boys his age.  We are so proud of him.

As tradition with our cub scout group to officially become a bear you have to eat some "grub" worms you have to pick out the the dirt (oreos crushed up with gummy worms in it).  Alden is showing his mouthful off.  It was a fun pack night with lots of awards.
