Officially boyscouts

I did the grocery shopping this afternoon...it's kind of fun to do a big shop once a month because you never really know what's going to be on the shelves, one way or another - what will be out of stock and what new products they will have that one hasn't been able to get for months! (For example - I got Fattis and Monis macaroni, which is the only real macaroni [for you non-South Africans, F&M produces a longer macaroni which does not clump together as tightly as the Tescos noodles...so you don't end up getting a perfect cube when you dish up a helping of mac'n'cheese, but rather a pleasing spread of it]). Shopping done, I stopped by the manse to pick up something for Aaron, and was again surprised by the progress. Nick went in yesterday and photographed everything, but even today there was change. This wall was newly tiled today.

The boys were properly enrolled this evening during the Scout's AGM. I had to miss most of bible study to be with them for this all-important ceremony which they had been looking forward to for so long. They had to say the promise and then received their scarves and badges. Aaron is a Beaver and Caleb is a Cub.
