This is Archer’s 4th year as a Cub scout and Atley’s 2nd. It’s my second year as the pack leader, and I’m determined to get the numbers of scouts back up near 35 kids again. I had a 6×2 got sign made for the bottom of my driveway, and the pictures are great, but the words are too small.
So this year, the boys helped me paint a spare price of plywood!

Happy 6th Birthday to Atley!
The local jump house guy’s just got a new alien jump house, and it is huge!
Archer has turned 8! We had a small get together with our quarantine family. Ashley’s birthday was also close, so we made it a double birthday party
We also went for a quick bike ride (and chalk test) that morning:
As crazy as 2020 was, we still managed to have a great year.
Archer and Atley did a lot this year. They are both loving schooling with Nana (Anna’s Mom).
Archer has been taking piano lessons, and is getting very good. He’s a Wolf in Cub Scouts, and had gotten back into Pokemon (Cards + Go).
Altey joined Cub Scouts this year with a couple friends, and is getting very good at basic math and reading.
Anna got her long-awaited four-horse barn built this year, and Ashton got to help build the tack and feed rooms.
Ashton has been working on taking his business to the next level as well as teaching his boys all of his boy scout camp songs.
For my birthday party last year, I wanted to play board games for a day. This was the first, now annual, board game birthday party. We ended up starting around noon, playing a long game called Civilization: A New Dawn Board Game. It was a long, mediocre game. Then we played a game of Star Wars Original Trilogy Risk, which ended up being 15 minutes… Then the party was over.
Overall Rating 3/10 An attempt was made
First, I bought my own birthday present this year, because this game looked so fun. This game is called Project Elite. It is a real-time, co-operative game, where you all roll dice as fast as you can in 2-minute turns to try to fight back a large horde of aliens. The game comes with Miniatures for the heroes and aliens, so I got to paint all the minis before my party:
This year, we played:
We pretty much started playing Friday Night, then some friends slept over, and we woke up early to play from ~9:00 am straight through to after midnight.
I gave everyone a “Don’t Get Got” packet around noon on Saturday. It was the cherry on top of a great day of games.
Overall Rating: 10/10: Epic fun was had by all.
