DeWitt's Eagle Court of Honor May 12, 2012

May 12, 2012, this day will go down in history!!!! The Eagle Scout court of honor for my baby boy. It turned out very nice. We had it in the "Barn" at Discovery Park. This is the park where DeWitt completed his Eagle project. He built two walking trails from the telescope area to the barn. He was a great leader and dis a great job.

We had the Safford high school make this cake, it was beautiful and delicious. I used the pictures for decorations.

The girls doing the "coyote" When they were little, Scott would teach them this little trick. He said that they looked like a coyote looking for a square meal. Polly is actaully howling.

Wow, grandpa, you knocked this speech out of the park. It was so good. We loved how you reminisced about when you were a scout. We loved how you told us facts about eagles. It was so very interesting. And we just loved listening to your wise words of wisdom, and to have you be the one to talk was such an honor for us. Thanks dad.

DeWitt pinning on the Mama pin. I love it, and I'm so grateful that I was able to receive it even though I didn't do much in the way of DeWitt working towards his Eagle. I just loved him through it!!

Oh the proud mama.

DeWitt pinning the mentor pin on Tommy Davis. Tommy has been Scouting with DeWitt since DeWitt was in Cub Scouts. I've never heard of a leader going through all of a Scouting with a boy. I know that he is proud of DeWitt too.

Mayor Chris Gibbs gave the Eagle Charge. He was also DeWitt's soccer coach.

Grandma and Grandpa Biggs. You were one of the biggest pushers for DeWitt's success on his journey to Eagle. Thanks mom, you knew he could do it, and he did!!
