Blue and Gold Banquet

Trent has been involved in scouts at church since he turned 8.  It has become something we really enjoy.  Each year, they hold a Blue and Gold Banquet to hand out special awards for the year and to display a bit of what the boys did.  This year they showed off their collections that they worked on.  Trent also earned a couple extra special patches for helping in some fundraisers.

 The pack holds a cake decorating contest each year.  It is supposed to be a father/son event (no help from moms) so this year, it was a Trent/Haylee event.  I was unable to help and Dave isn't here to help, so he and Haylee worked together.  It's times like these that the absence of Dave is very real.  They ask for a father to help their boys, but he is in the middle east.  However, we do the best we can so Dave and Trent brainstormed some ideas and came up with a plan of what to do.  Then Trent and Haylee just had to execute the plan.  Anyway, Trent decided on a food pyramid cake!  I loved his creativity and ideas that came together.
He earned the "well balanced" award... HA HA.  I loved it, unfortunately, Logan started crying when he got the piece with the broccoli on it
