Their troop won the fire building contest and took 2nd overall (even after getting no sleep because they had 7 boys in their 4 man tent and were sleeping on a slope!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brown8.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/P1040597.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-254\" title=\"P1040597\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brown8.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/P1040597-1024x768.jpg?resize=474%2C356\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brown8.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/P1040597.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brown8.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/P1040597.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brown8.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/P1040597.jpg?w=1365&amp;ssl=1 1365w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brown8.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/P1040597.jpg?w=948&amp;ssl=1 948w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I think Clark has had grilled cheese and fries for every birthday since he was two years old! \u00a0Of course he got to choose a Sunday Birthday dinner for when the whole family was here to celebrate.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year Clark turned 14 years old. \u00a0He seems so tall and old \u2013 he is taller than I am and has almost caught up with Elliot.
