Club Fun!

The Cub Fun Gang- Mathias-Gus-Theo-Sam-James-AndrewI found Gus and Andrew making lunch- Peanut-butter and Jam and plain Jam sandwiches for all! They made them all buy them selves. They did not ask for any help, nor did I tell them to make sandwiches. Andrew had thought threw everything.
Theo helped put together a time table of all the activities they wanted to do for the time frame they had set up. Andrew had handed out invites all by him self and determined the time of the get together.

A couple of boys could not make it. They go skiing in the winter with their families.

Andrew had made name badges for everyone so they knew what team they would be on. He arranged the teams very carefully so they would be even.


This is the sign he made to put on the gate to the backyard. I love how he drew pictures of the kids playing football!

He also had an arrow pointing to the side of the house-pointing to Club Fun!

Andrew had to much fun with the kids. He told me that if some one got hurt they would come and get me. Other wise they were fine with out me. Gary and I had a fun time watching the boys play. Andrew made sure they had equipment ready for all the games. They borrowed base ball equipment from the neighbor boys. It was really funny watching them play football. Andrew has never played before. Watching him trying to hike the ball was great.
The kids wanted to do this every Saturday. I think we will try and do this once a month. I need to get hold of all the parents and try and figure out something. Some of the parents wondered if this was a real get together. They said the invite was too cute. Sam's dad said he woke him up at 6am ready to go the Cub meeting.
I am very proud of Andrew. He took lots of time to think everything thru. He even delegated to some of his friends to help him out. It is fun to see him being a good leader with his friends. We had a nice talk about how when we are the leader, we don't just tell kids what to do. We help everyone stay on track and decide as a group what the plan should be.
