Nate worked really hard and earned his Arrow of Light award for Cub Scouts. He was able to have a joint ceremony with his friend Jacob Lewis. Prior to these two getting this award, we hadn't had a boy get it since maybe 2009. They had some great leaders helping them along the way. Without Sis Barnes help, our boys would not be earning what they do. She does a lot with these boys. We had their ceremony outside because we found a program that we like that involved fire. It was a really well done program. We had hot apple cider and pumpkin cinnamon rolls and arrows made of donuts. I made all the treats but not the drink. I wish I had taken a picture of the goodies. We had a great turn out and alot of younger kids there so hopefully they'll remember this and want to follow in their footsteps.

Prior to the boys shooting their flaming arrow their dad's each shot a flaming arrow as well. It was really neat how they had the boys following their dad's lead. I wish I had got a picture of Danny doing his but he was too fast.

| Getting ready to shoot. They practised the Saturday before on their shooting skills. |
 |
| Pretty good accuracy, just missed the bulls eye. |
 |
| Of course parents have to come up front and receive recognition. And I hate being in front of people. |

| Nathan his ceremonial arrow as his keepsake. And not too bad of a picture of all of us. |
