Whittling Away

Cub Scouts has begun again, and Sawyer and I have moved up with the Bears.
It was also Cooper's first night as Den Chief for the pack, to help him with service hours and leadership positions.


Tonight we worked on earning the Whittling Chip.
After practicing with plastic knives by cutting homemade rolls and spreading jams, the real action began.
The boys found out about the Whittling Chip last year and have eagerly anticipated their turn.


Nothing like a bar of Ivory soap, and a little pocket knife to make the entire room smell fresh!

The Boy still loves to whittle soap. Now the soap leaves messages for his sisters while they're in the shower though!
