I am excited to begin working on my merit badges and sharing my experiences with everyone! After much debating I was finally able to pick the top 4 badges I plan to accomplish first!
I chose….

1.Pampered Pets (Outpost)
-It’s important to me that my pets are healthy and will live a long happy life. Knowing what is best for them will allow me to enhance their life.

2. Bread Making (Farm Kitchen)
-I have always enjoyed cooking and now look forward to a better way of cooking.

3. Embroidery (Stitching and Crafting)
- Would love to make something special for my baby boy just like my Grandma Butters made for me.

4. Water Conservation (Cleaning Up)
- I love the idea of helping save the planet as well as help me save money on my bill.

With that in mind, what merit badges do you fellow farmgirls plan on accomplishing first? Or working towards right now? Any of them hold a special meaning that drives you to accomplish one over another?

Much luck and enjoyment in your merit badge experiences!

Thanks everyone! We have really enjoyed working on them. They are fun ways for us all to connect and do things as a family. Even though Bexten has 2 more years, he has enjoyed tagging along!

Over the weekend we applied for a lot of badges! Everleigh applied for 5, Stryder applied for 3, and Tilton applied for 3! I also applied for 5. I applied for my Expert Origami, Expert Macrame, Beginner Backyard Farmer, Beginner Chillover Comeover, and Beginner Farmgirl Gratitude. We each have a couple more to apply for and hopefully we can get around to them this week.

Terri - Look at soldiers angels. They are based here in San Antonio and they have a few different letter and card campaigns.

I am working on my letter writing badge. I think itwould be an interesting twist to write to our miltary personel sttion abroad. Does anyone know of any groups working to send letters to our Military stationed abroad?

How fun! That's a project I haven't started yet. What are you going to put your embroidery on? I'm thinking of an apron - when I get around to doing it :)
