We have been hearing that the Jamboree has been mentioned on several news stations and have missed them all, so we went online to see what we could find. Among other longer videos, this one gives a good idea of what Caleb is experiencing this week.
The only news we’ve heard from the leaders of our troop is that the flight from Texas to New Jersey was delayed when the boys flew out and they didn’t arrive until around 2 a.m. and then had to be up and on their way to the Statue of Liberty around 7 a.m.
They enjoyed touring Washington D.C. The Smithsonian was a big hit with the boys.
We were sent the Troop Jamboree address and were given permission to send a care package. Clint, Caitlin, and I went out last night to buy goodies for Caleb and have written letters to send off today.
In other news, I got the bling (braces) I have been wanting/needing/dreading. All I have to say is ouch and thank heavens for Advil. This might just turn out to be the best diet plan I could have found due to not being able to figure out how to chew. ;-) Caitlin thinks the whole thing is pretty funny.

You need to post a picture! Maybe I need that kind of diet plan, I can't seem to stay away from anything I know I should be! I've seen the news talking about the Jamboree and thought about Caleb and Marcus. I hope they are having a great time!
Marcus thinks he saw Caleb yesterday. So fun!
I wish you had some other kind of wonderful bling to show off. How many pounds have you lost since Monday? Can you eat anything yet?
Anxious to hear about Caleb's adventures.
