Honor Society

Last Monday,
Austin was inducted into the
National Junior Honor Society.

He makes us so proud.

While we waited for the ceremony to start,
we watched Allie walk -
and Jake imitate...
Austin receiving his award.
(BTW - I hate the lighting in the auditorium!)

Those of you that know how Austin is with having his picture taken,
know that I am lucky to have these two pictures!Again, he makes us so proud!

Last night, he went up for OA (Order of the Arrow) elections in Scouts.
OA is a type of "Honor Society" within Scouting.
It will be a while before he knows if he has been elected -
he has a few tasks to perform to prove he's "worthy",
but his Scoutmaster said that
"Austin is a shoe-in".
