The Growing Caldwell Family

The next weekend Aaron went camping with Charlie and the Cub Scout pack. As Aaron says, if it's raining, he must be going camping!  As they are finishing up Cub Scouts, the boys have formed patrols and are taking on responsibility for planning and cooking their own meals. On this camp out, the meals might have been the best part! They named their patrol the "Exploding Purple Pancakes" so purple pancakes were a breakfast must! The rain led to cancelling some of the activities; a scout went home sick during the night (leaving Aaron and another leader having to drive him to meet his parents at 1 AM), and leaky tents made for a rough camp out!  Charlie came home so very tired and we figured out a couple of days later that he had strep throat. Yay!   

I think this is the 5th year Aaron has taken Sarah Graves for a Father Daughter Camp Out at Camp Misty Mountain.  They had fair weather, planned their meals well, and no crowds. Plus, on the way back they stopped at  Bucee's!
