May Highlights

Dude and Kody went on the Order of Arrow initiation where you sleep out by yourself with just your sleeping bag, stay silent for 24 hours, and do service. They did this at our BSA Camp Karankawa. Kody's friend Jacob told him he thought he saw an alligator slip into the thicket near Kody during the night. If it's true, thank goodness he wasn't hungry!! Kacie thought Dude would have a hard time with the silent part as much as he likes to talk, but he managed to pass.

Kacie performed with the beginning band in a concert this week. Swim season has started and Kacie got first place in back stroke for girls in her age group yesterday. She also placed first in her heat in butterfly which she says she doesn't like. It is the hardest stroke.

Kade is getting very close to getting his driver's license. I'm getting brave enough to let him drive to church and even let him drive on the freeway last week.
