Eagle Scout


                                         
Tanner earned his Eagle Scout Award!  He was so nervous for his Board of Review interview but did great!  Luke's interview was the same night...


 Two of his scout leaders that were there to support him, Bro Howell and Bro Jacques


Here is the Board that interviewed him...

We had a Court of Honor to recognize our troops newest scouts, Tanner, Luke, and Connor.






Here is a link to a video that Michelle made for the Court of Honor




Felicity thought it was a very enthralling presentation...

Connor's grandpa presented the boys with flags that were flown over the US Congress building.  He is a decorated veteran so it was very special that he could present them this honor.  

We had a reception at our house afterwards...







We really are so proud of Tanner.  Getting an Eagle Award is no small task.  When he was chronically sick a few years ago, I told him he did not need to worry about getting his Eagle, he had enough other things to worry about.  But it was a goal he had set and he was determined.  He kept at it and accomplished his goal.  Many moms say they earned an Eagle because they did so much of their son's work.  Not Tanner, this was all him.  Of course I helped and encouraged, but Tanner really did earn this award because of his determination and perseverance.  It was fun for me to watch him grow and learn from all he did as a scout.  Proud to be an Eagle Mom!
