Go Cub Scouts!!

Thursday was cold here - 55 in the am!

So the kids had pants and sweaters on!

Princess V was not to be outdone!

That is her princess hat they made in school on Wednesday for "P" week

Danny likes his exercise - hauling his sisters around the back yard in the wagon certainly does that!!

We have been letting Ms V stay at aftercare with her classmates so she gets no nap on school days.

Here she is last night at dinner :) :) (yes she is sound asleep!)

Cub Scouts was having a cake auction! If you have never heard of one, it was great!!

The theme was sports.

The cub scout has to make the cake - hence the mix :)

I did crack the eggs so there would be no eggshells in the cake :)

Making the frosting green (supervisor V on duty!)

Can you guess yet?

Daddy helping with some trim outs:

Here is a line up of cakes:

So many more cakes than we thought we would have!!

Danny was so proud!

Thanks Ms Marianne for the great picture!

Lots of people showed up for the full pack meeting

We even had a REAL auctioneer!!!

We had Danny pick a couple of cakes that he was interested in so we could bid on them. One of them was his buddy Sebastian's swimming cake. His dad told me that he had to win it and I told him that I was going to make him pay lots!!

Here I am working on making Francisco pay lots of money for his son's cake :)

He is sitting at the table in the white shirt.

We were all laughing so hard!!! The bidding was fast and furious and I got him to pay $50 for his son's cake!!! The money went to the pack so the kids can go horse back riding and future camping trips!!

We ended up not winning any cakes, the bidding got much more expensive as the time went on. Each cub scout had to stand in front of everyone and talk about his cake and say how much it was worth.
When the auctioneer asked Danny how he made his cake he said he mixed it!! When asked what it was made of he said - "I don't know ask my mom!!"  Danny started the bidding at $10, but we dropped out at $30!!  One young boy said he and his grandpa made it together and when the auctioneer asked how much it was worth he said "priceless"!! How cute is that!!!!
It was a great night!!! Cake was shared by others so we did get to have some awesome chocolate cake with chocolate frosting!!! yummy!!!!!! The best part was that the pack raised over $600!!!!
