Here are several pictures from Gevin's Birthday and what fallowed.
Katlynn sure loves her brother. She used her own money to buy him a gift all by herself.
Gevin's brand new bike, that he loves to ride everyday. When the weather permits he rides it to school and back.
Gevin got to open a package him and Katlynn got from my mom. She like to send goodies and this time she included a pair of slippers. In Czech Republic they still sell the same style of slippers (indoor slip on shoes) that I used to ware when I was little. It was just a thing to wear these anytime at home and school. I remember how my mom was always after me if she caught me not wearing them.
These were very cute centerpieces at the Blue and Gold Banquet last Saturday. The theme for Scouts this year is B.U.G.S. ("Building Up Great Scouts") Both Katlynn and Gevin got to bring one bug balloon home:)
Gevin is being welcomed into Cub Scouts by receiving a Trappers Trail Patch. It also included eating two candy powder sticks. They had me pour them into his mouth all at once. I guess that's the tradition that makes everything official:) They were sour by the way. It was fun to watch Gevin's funny faces he was making.
Here are two presents Gevin got at the Baptism Fireside from his Primary leaders. A booklet that will help us to prepare him for baptism and a beautiful picture depicting The Baptism of Jesus Christ.
We have decided that even though he turned 8 already, we will postpone his baptism by a few months and plan a trip to Oregon and baptize him there so family can be present.
