Year 2, Day 16

May 6

Sarah's finished birthday cake. She did a good job.

Year 2, Day 15

May 5

Sarah is wrapping up her cake decorating honor with the required "special occasion cake of her choice". Her instructor is having a birthday on Pathfinder night, so that's what she picked. Chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and chocolate butter cream frosting - based on her instructor's favorite! I had her make it all from scratch too - might as well work on her baking honor while she's at it!

Year 2, Day 13

May 3

Today was the Pathfinder Rocket Launch! Lots of fun.

Year 2, Day 6

April 26

We had one of our Pathfinders over today to work on her Fire Building & Camp Cookery honor. We had to boil, fry, simmer, cook in foil, bake bread on a stick, and cook something in a reflector oven. So, in that order, we made eggs, potatoes, chili beans, corn on a knob,  campfire biscuits, and individual pizzas.

This honor is a required one for the older group known as Voyager. But since it was at our house, and doesn't have any particular prerequisites, we let Hannah & Sarah tag along, too.

Year 2, Day 2

These beautiful roses are at my boss's house. I love the bright colors.

Sarah finished her cake today!  Didn't she do a great job?

Year 2, Day 1

April 22

Sarah is still working on her cake decorating honor for Pathfinders. She has two more cakes to finish. A special occasion cake with flowers, and a specialty cake done with stars. She's starting on her specialty cake tonight.

Day 365

April 21

Today is one year since I restarted this project!  I did pretty good, only missing a few days here and there. Yes, Ann, I'll keep on going!

Moat of the Pathfinder staff, as well as a couple of our teen Pathfinders,  took a CPR class at the church tonight. The teacher was great, making the class both informative and fun!

Day 359

April 15

Asalia forgot her sash at Pathfinders. Again. Lol (I needed a picture of it for updating her records anyway!)

Day 349

April 5

Pathfinders hosted a mystery dinner this evening. Much fun and laughter was had by all.

Day 298

Sarah is making a cake to give away as a door prize at the church's Friendship Banquet on Sunday. She's working on her cake decorating honor for Pathfinders.

Day 289

February 4

I went around to the pathfinders tonight, taking pictures of sashes so I can make sure my records of who had what are current. Here are just a few of them.

Day 285

January 31

Hannah helped lead the praise music for Pathfinder Sabbath at the other church in Medford.

Day 282

January 28

Sarah made this beautiful flower out of gum paste at pathfinders.

Day 261

January 7

The God's Messenger honor about Ellen White was introduced at the 2014 Forever Faithful International Camporee in Oshkosh, WI. Since our club has a staff member who spent 21 years working at the White Estate in Loma Linda, it only made sense that she teach it to our club as a group.

Day 227

December 4

Here's Sarah with the cake she made yesterday. She's quite pleased with herself.

Day 226

December 3

Sarah isn't technically a pathfinder, but she comes with us each week. One of the other staff members offered to teach her an honor that isn't a required one or one that the club necessarily will do as a whole. So she is thrilled to be learning cake decorating. Thanks, Jennifer!
