Rain gutter regatta

We had a little rain gutter regatta for the boys this month at pack meeting.  Obviously they didn't go all out on the "boats," they are just recycled water bottles, but it worked.  The boys still had lots of fun.

Of course Alex had a blast too.  He wanted to do it over and over again, and kept getting back in line. He thought it was pretty neat idea to use a straw to blow a water bottle down a gutter of water.

Aric gave it a try too.  He also thought it was great.

The webelos were in charge of snack, so that meant that I was in charge of it this time because I forgot to talk to the boys about them bringing it.  So, I had fun making these blue jell-o cups with orange slice boats to go with our boat theme.  Aaron helped me with all the sails.  Another Mom did offer to help me with the snack, which I was grateful for, so she brought some cookies to go with the jell-o cups.

Aaron has been having a lot of fun in cub scouts.  His den went to the police station a few weeks ago, and he has been learning all kinds of new things to pass off his requirements.  I'm enjoying being an assistant too.  I feel like I'm getting to know the cub scout program more, and that helps me to help Aaron as well.
