The Blue and Gold banquet went great...they didn't fiddle-fart around doing stupid stuff, they got right to the point of everything. The pennant I made looked great, imo! The lady (that I clash with...she was the supervisor of the banquet) used them for the picture area...where all the scouts got their "professional" pictures made. Here's one that I took...Matthew is front and center, with is cap on. The paper mache (sp?) basketballs have their beeds and patches inside them!
Best of all, Matthew achieved his Bear Rank! I guess that means he can progress on to Webelos, and that everything from now on is just fluff (Arrows of Light, Symbols of Faith badge, ect.)
All in all, it was a good time. Sat with a good friend of mine (her son was the only one that showed up to work on the decorations the other day)...the den leader (that I clash with) forgot to mention my name when she thanked the individual "banquet committee" people, for which she later apologized profusely and my response was "That's ok...I was just helpin' out, didn't even realize I was on the committee!" I just made the pennants and did a bunch of errand-running for people.
I get my hair cut and my manicure today! 10:30am Central.
Heh...

Yes, but now she owes you one. ;-)
