Crossover Ceremony

March 14, 2024

Two weeks ago Spencer and his Cub Scout troop had their crossover ceremony officially earning their Arrow of Light and becoming Boy Scouts! There was a good group of them that stuck it out and made it through Cub Scouts together. This group wasn’t quite as committed and connected as Maxwell’s group so it wasn’t quite as bittersweet. But, it’s still a great accomplishment and I’m so proud of Spencer and all of these boys!

I’m really just proud of this kid in general – he’s a smart, good kid and I’m so thankful he’s mine.

Glad to have most of these boys moving onto Boy Scouts together at Troop 63!

Magic

March 1, 2024

Spencer had another fun season of OTM basketball with Magic! They worked hard with two practices a week starting back in November. First tournament was at Hoops and then the Jingle Bell Jam where they made it all the way to the final game. Spencer missed the final game for Paris and the team couldn’t pull out the win against MB Black. It was an excellent start to the season though!

When regular season play they were on a streak! All season the played hard and won all of their games except the ones against the other MB teams. Womp Womp. They came pretty close to beating MB Black but both times they played MB Green they just couldn’t put it together. It was not the ending the team wanted but they still had a great run, got better at basketball, and had fun.

Apparently I only take pictures of Spencer when he’s shooting free throws! ha!

Pinewood Derby

February 28, 2024

We raced in our final pinewood derby with Spencer’s car, “Magic”! It was Spencer’s car but Maxwell had a very heavy hand in the decoration. A team effort we’ll say!

The car had some good speed but, when in the outlaw division, it just couldn’t compete with the weight that Bobby’s car had…which had a literal dumbbell on it! ha! I personally think Spencer was robbed in the “paint job” category but that’s ok.

It was a pretty afternoon and a fun end to cub scouts!
