Eight is Great!

October was a great month.  Matthew turned 8 years old and got to celebrate in many ways!

He had his birthday party a little early, so he could have a swimming party at Nana’s and Grandpa’s pool.  It was tons of fun.

He and Dave did an official backpack and overnighter.  They hiked to Notch Lake, near Kamas, Utah.

He started Cub Scouts and loves it.  He got to participate in a flag retiring ceremony at his firs Pack meeting.  It was REALLY cool!  It was a first for the whole family.  He also got to make and shoot off his rockets and he had a really good launch.  He’s thinking about becoming a rocket scientist.

Matthew’s baptism was definitely the best part of being 8.  He was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on October 30, 2010.
