Blue and Gold 2013

Saturday morning we had our western themed blue and gold banquet.
The decorations were great. We served food out of the back of a handcart. There was a large WANTED poster photo spot. There stick horse races, horseshoes, and some tales of the trails were told. 
I am on the cub committee so I was able to help in the planning and execution. Some of my favorite touches were the firefly jars (they are hard to discern in this picture because we could not turn the lights all of the way off) and the wanted placemats made by the boys for each family member and their's had a black and white picture of them on it. 
Another big hit were the mustache straws seen below-so silly!






Our cub master introduced each boy by describing three things (sent in by parents) he had done that year and we had to guess.  I said Joey had played the piano in primary, learned to shoot a BB gun and could break a board with his hand and foot.
He was excited to earn his photography and language arts belt loops and pins.
We are so proud of Joey and his achievements.  Next year will be great because Jon will be a cub scout too!
