Cameron is 12!!


September 23 was an historic day at our house. Cameron celebrated his 12th birthday. It was a day long in coming. He now gets to go to the young men/young women activities at church. He has been at home by himself almost since we got here, but no longer! In fact his first activity was on his birthday. We had a GPS activity through out the neighborhood with s'mores at the end. I believe he had a great time. He now gets to be in Boy Scouts instead of 11 year-old Scouts. He has already finished everything to receive his Second and First Class Scout badges. Which should happen this Tuesday. Another milestone will happen tomorrow at church. He will receive the priesthood and be ordained to the office of Deacon. He won't get to pass the sacrament for a couple of weeks though because next week is General Conference.

I thought I would share a few of Cameron's current passions...

He has just learned how to solve the Rubik's Cube puzzle.



He builds some crazy card houses.





And he has had an enduring love of building with K'nex.






Apparently he has also taken up photography because I did not take the pictures of his creations.

We had the same awesome month with Elijah. It has been so fun watching him experience these new things. He passed the sacrament for the first time last week. He looked so cute.

Cameron is a cutie. He looks like you. Isn't it odd to have all your kids teens!
