Drew went into scouts back in January. He absolutely loves scouts. He is always asking what he can work on to earn his next achievement. He is a bit of an overachiever. Well thanks to his leader, Marnie Jones, and Drew’s determination, he earned his wolf badge this week. He was pretty excited to have …

Spring Soccer Season
Soccer season kept us very busy this spring to say the least. We usually had 3 games every day! Drew was quite a superstar and generally scored a goal or two every game. His team finished the season undefeated. Ellie likewise finished her season undefeated and although she played up a level to be with …
Drew’s Late Night Habits
A while back you may remember that I made another post about Drew and his love of reading, especially at night. I tuck Drew in around 8:30 every evening. For whatever reason, he has never been able to sleep that early. I told him he can read, do homework, write in his journal or anything …
First Weekend of Spring Camping Trip
This last weekend Manina was out-of-town at yet another girls trip. Jacob, Megan, and Katelyn had a church “mini-mission” activity that would keep them busy (and supervised) all Friday night and most of the day on Saturday. I was home with just Claire, Drew, and Ellie. So, instead of sitting around and playing on iPods …
Drew’s Baptism
Drew was baptized on February 6, 2016 at 10:30 am. He made the decision to be baptized a few months before and had been reading all about this ordinance and purpose behind it. He was excited and ready for his special day. (Thanks to my friend Hannah Stayner for snapping these photos for me.) Unfortunately …
Our Cute Cub Scout
With every 8th birthday for boys in our house, comes the excitement of joining Cub Scouts. Drew was no different. He couldn’t wait for this 8th birthday and to attend his first den meeting. He got a nice new scout shirt, neckerchief, slide and Wolf book. He started reading his book before he even got …
Drew is Eight!
Our little Drew Buddy has turned eight! He wanted more than anything to have a few of his buddies over to celebrate. Although my energy level is less than stellar a week or two after Christmas, I conceded and allowed him to have six of his buddies come with us to the Museum of Curiosity. …
Drew is a busy kiddo!
This year Drew decided to play both soccer and flag football. I was under the impression the seasons did not overlap, but I was wrong. We have at least two games a week for him. He is becoming quite an athlete. He is such a speedy thing on the soccer field. He actually has really …
Our Night Owl Loves to Read
Drew has always been good about going to bed on time. He is usually in bed no later than 8:30, sometimes closer to 8:00. For the longest time he would just toss and turn for an hour or two, but he wouldn’t try to get up or leave his room. He usually falls asleep around …
Don’t use Drew’s toothbrush
I came into our upstairs bathroom the other day and it looked just like this. The arrangement was so bizarre that I had to inspect it a little closer. Here is the note: I’m still not sure what caused Drew to write this note, it just cracked me up. The note disappeared just as mysteriously …
