James completed his Eagle Project on Jan. 2nd and I am so proud of him! He was asked to sort childrens books to be sent to a Library on an Indian Reservation in Louisiana. The library had been ruined due to hurricanes and needed new books for the children. James had 13 friends help sort through 4 pallets of books and check to make sure they were in good condition. He then sorted into groups of childrens, adults, or religious books and packed up the children's books to be sent to Louisiana. It was a fun project and with that many boys, it didn't take too long. James was contacted by a newspaper agency in Louisiana and his project will be published in the paper. It was a really neat experience and I'm so glad he is able to help these children in this area. We only need to finish the paperwork now and then he will be an EAGLE SCOUT!! Yea!

Hi Larui,
I just now have the chance to look at your blog. It does make me miss living in Utah. Just not the same support out here and it has definately been challenaging for my oldest. It looks like your life is so blessed-it is fun to see a little into it.
