music merit badge

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11th - 2009

Wednesday is scouts for Joe.  This week was a little different.  Instead of meeting with just his troop, there was an activity for the scouts of 3 different stakes at the Cooper building where they could earn a merit badge in one night.  They had the choice of doing leather working, fingerprinting, or music.

Joe chose music, of course.  He was pretty happy because he got to bring his guitar and show off his skills.  The teacher of the class turned out to be my elementary school music teacher Mrs. Crandall.  She's  still around teaching music.  She's awesome, I told Joe that she would be fun.  
He had a good time, and we ran into an old friend from our ward - Christian Nienstedt.  We really miss him.  Also, he earned a merit badge in one night - woo hoo!  One more down, a million more to go (it seems like).

sounds like the guitar is going well...it's good that he has such an interest in learning it.
