We are very proud to have three Eagle Scouts in our family, Kim, Tyler, and Matt. Wednesday, Oct. 3rd is Matt's eagle court of honor. We know there are a lot of you that would like to be there but can't. You'll be there in spirit. Matt has actually had his eagle paperwork for over a year, but we were waiting on another boy in the ward to finish so that they could have a joint court of honor. We decided a year was long enough to wait and that we would have Matt's separately. Matt truly does exemplify the values of scouting. Just this Sunday one of the widowed ladies in our ward asked Kim and I if Matt could help her move a friend because in her words, "If Matt is helping, I know it will get done." He has a reputation for being cheerful, helpful and capable. Matt is in his senior year and has already passed three AP exams. He loves to read and remembers everything he reads, even the smallest detail. He is continually amazing me with his profound insights. He is on the seminary council. We are so proud of you Matt!!!

Way to go Matt. Were very proud of you. I am enouraged by your capabilities and look forward to you coming home from a mission and getting married so we can hang out and talk Science and Math ooh. I have to say, however, that I don't think I'll be able to catch up in two years, even with the eight I already have on you. Way to go on the eagle, glad to see that we about tied on that one.
