Raingutter Regatta

We had a very successful Raingutter Regatta at pack meeting tonight! I was worried that having it right after the holiday would hurt our attendance, but we had lots of boats and supportive parents. It probably helped that we had several boys getting major awards...

The Dog Walker did an awesome job as the MC and my sweetie helped run the bracketing even though technically he is not in charge of the cubs anymore. Although Curly and Sport were both there, it was weird that neither one of them had a boat to race. Now that Sport is an 11-year-old scout, he doesn't usually participate with the cubs, and Curly won't be old enough for Tiger cubs until he turns 7 in August.

We gave out all 12 hats to some very excited kids! The one girl who placed in the open class was the happiest of all except for maybe one little guy who confided in me that this was his very first hat from any of our pack meetings and he had been trying really hard!

We are slowly pulling life back together. We got the living room and the family room rearranged and the furniture feet all covered with little felt squares and baby socks. Drama Queen even managed to get the kitchen table all fixed up with felt, so other than the clutter remaining from such a huge project, we are mostly in good order.

I even managed to get my Tupperware orders bagged! Now if I can just get it delivered...

Your cub meetings always look like great ones. I am sure the children look forward to them all.
I am happy you are back in your home and I hope you really enjoy that floor. That was a huge project. We have been there before.
Blessings and hugs that your week will be a good one and you can catch a nap here and there.
