Oh look he's a scout too, must be some rite of passage.
ANYWHO - Except, lets just pretend that this bridge is a flaming bride of death, thats right, you heard me FLAMING! (I may be exaggerating, just a bit). These eagle scouts had to cross this bridge, while below them there was a massive bonfire. At the end of the bridge they took the zipline down and crossed straight over the bonfire. It's a wonder that none of these strapping young men singed their khakis. If I were a parent, who know about this insanity, I would have pulled my son out of scouts long ago.
On a side note, I am here, blogging in my brand new blue "super soft fleece" Snuggie (the blanket with sleeves) as seen on TV. It is pretty much one of the most amazing things ever. I think that I am going to adapt my snuggie just a tad and install a little velcro snappy on the back. I also wish I could hem it a little, because its slightly long and hard to walk in. The sleeves also hang down a bit. But other than that I love it. Oh also, it has a static cling problem too. Cest La Vie.
Another side note - I went back to the Dillards sale and got 2 more shirts and a cute little Kenneth Cole short sleeve blazer/jacket thingie. super cuteness. (My mommy bought them for me) but the total for these 3 goodies was $17!!! And the other day I spend $30 on 2 shirts, tsk tsk to me. I also have 2 skirts and a jacket that my mommy bought for me at the Dillards in my home town, which I have yet to see, but I'm sure they'll be cuteee! Gotta love mommies :)

Oh my word! you are so stinkin on the ball with the bloggy goodness! I too, witnessed the boy scout rite of passage...aka...flaming bridge of DEATH! I seriously felt like I needed a Zanex or two after that spectacle. I had absolutely no idea what I was signing my boys up for. Is it too late to turn back now??? BTW, I am soooooo excited to get a turn to wear the famous snuggie tomorrow.

Becca, I almost wet myself when I found out you were wearing a snuggie while blogging. That is awesome.
Becca--I was terrified! Plus I was kept in the dark about this potential death trap--makes sense not to tell the parents.....hmmm. Anyway, he is DONE and I am HAPPY--I am yanking him out of Scouts this very second!
