We spent four hours in Sunol today, at a regional park. The weather was pretty near perfect, but a tiny bit chilly at times. The shade was quite comfortable. We went to this park for the culmination of the cub scout year, the bridging to the next rank. Quinn and his den earned their Tiger Cub badge, and are now official Wolves. We had a potluck picnic, played games, got awards, and then bridged.
This is Quinn, and his dad, walking across the bridge to bridge to the next cub scout rank. We really used a bridge for the bridging! How appropriate. I have more pictures of the boys from the former Wolves den, making the switch. I'll post those tomorrow.
The first game the boys played was a balloon relay race. They had to hold the balloon between their legs, and hop to the other side, and hop back. This is Quinn starting out. His balloon popped, so someone had to hand him another one.
This is Riley at the mid point, stopping to show his "what?" pose.
Next the boys played Tug of War. It was actually quite a good game, and several moms were super cheerers. It went on for quite awhile, with both teams doing well, until one side finally weakened.
PULL! PULL!
Word of the Day: Birthday! It's my mom's birthday. She is so excited because she got an iPhone! She's super hip. It has a pretty pink casing on it. We went to BJ's Brewery (?) for dinner. The boys got her Hannah Montana perfume (she asked for it), and we gave her a Canasta card game, and some Amazing Grace perfume, oh and I made her one of my flower frame art thingys.
