Ben had his first Blue and Gold Banquet at the beginning of March. He loved it! He has so much fun doing all his cub scout stuff with his dad :). David is so good at helping Ben. He decided he wanted he wanted a Skylander cake and David, being who is, figured it out. All of the kids had fun watching Dad make this cake. Each of the sides had something to do with the figure on that part of the cake. The top were all the flyers, they were supposed to be in the sky :).
The Fire side was the favorite of the cub scouts. You can't hardly see the figure in this picture because he blends in with the cake so well. Ben was so proud of his cake (that is 4 cake mixes by the way, and since every boy makes a cake you can imagine how much cake we brought home). The bottom half was strawberry cake which Ben had to have. David and I decided we are not big fans of that flavor :). Poor folks who had it at the party. Hopefully they looked past the cake and just enjoyed the secret recipe icing :).
The wolves were in charge of the skit and Ben got to be the MC for it. He had it memorized but at the last minute decided he couldn't go up without his paper. He read it, but he still did a great job.
It was the "ugliest man" skit. There is a boy behind the curtain and the MC asks all the boys to dare to look at the ugliest man. They all scream, faint and fall down as they look. Then the MC asks for the cub master to come up. When he looks behind the curtain the boy back there screams and faints. It was really cute.
Ben earned his Wolf badge that night. We were all so proud.
I sent David up instead of myself since I have never even opened his scout book. Hurrah for "Captain America!"
