Flag Ceremony

With Ryan's 11th Birthday looming ever so close, and WE, not having completed HIS Weblos rank yet, WE still have a few requirements left for HIM to advance.  He as been sure to tell us he does NOT want to be in scouting, so what do GOOD parents do???  Tell him, TOO BAD, SO SAD, You are going to do it.  We may sound a little harsh, but if you knew the REAL reason for not wanting to do it, I think you would make him do exactly what we are making him do.  OK, at least if you wanted him to not hinder himself just because he is shy.

So, here are the flag bearer and the posse (or whatever you want to call this group of hoodlums). Sarah carried the flag, Jeff followed, then Brayden, and bringing up the rear was Tyson.

Ryan conducted the ceremony and he did an awesome job.

Thank you to the Pitts and the Baths who were kind enough to make it to this prestigious event.  But, I do think the only reason they really came is because we bribed them with Strawberry Shortcake.  I think I would do a lot just for a treat.
