Conner and Porter participated in Cub Scout Day camp a few weeks ago. The theme was Scouts down under so they got lots of cool Australia stuff. This was family night and the scouts provided the entertainment. Porter's group sang a song. Conner's group did a skit of the tortiose and the hair---Conner is the hair, laying down with the white scarf on. They had a good time.

Part of the Miner's Jubilee was several activities at the park. They had a blowup obstacle course. They had several games for the kids to play---our not so favorite was the ping pong ball toss into the fish bowl and guess what you won-a gold fish---lucky us we accumulated 6 gold fish. The boys have been forwarned that we will be setting them "free" in the local river. They did have a good time.

A few weeks ago Baker celebrated Miner's Jubilee where they celebrate the gold mining history of the area. We went to the parade and got a kick out of this "float". He was the rodeo clown with a clown horse.

I am trying to figure out how to make a slide show with other pictures from the parage. There were several cool floats and participants.

We had a stake Pioneer Day this weekend. Lots of fun for everyone. Of course I do not think they had blow up water slides back then. The boys went on a hay ride, learned to use a 2 man saw, got to push lots of kids in wheelbarrel races and had a fun time.

Mason's allstar's has been going very well. They are 3-1 going into the championship game tomorrow afternoon. He has mostly played catcher with a few innings pitching. He has done will. First game he hit a fabuluous double to bring in the tying run, putting them into extra innings. They pulled out that win in the bottom of the 7th inning.
