Cy: A Month in the Life

Cy was supposed to decorate a cake for a cake walk at the Blue and Gold cub scout banquet.

I'm no Cake Boss—more like this:

But we got inspired on the internet and managed to come up with this "Nest Cake." It's pretty much foolproof for a 10-year-old decorator. Gravy.
Since Easter is around the corner, I could get stuff like edible grass and speckled Whopper eggs. Perquisite! (—it's formal for "perk." Did you know that? I didn't know that.) Peeps were the logical and yummier choice for birds, but Hobby Lobby insisted I come and look around.
(Always obey Hobby Lobby.)

Some of the other cakes at the banquet were store-bought. That's just smart—simplify! (Why didn't I think of that?!)

But take a look at THIS sweet idea:

That one takes the cake!

Cy was supposed to be awarded his Webelos badge at the banquet, but it got overlooked.
DENIED.

Hmmm, what else has Cy been up to?

Oh, so this is Cy's unabashed list of 4th grade girls who like him:

Bailey
Maddy
Madison

He's also a shoo-in for the NBA and NFL (don't you know ;)


Cy's been playing in a few AAU tournaments lately.

My favorite pic of the games:




And this is Cy making the big bucks from Grandpa in his yard.



You're a champ, Cy. Apparently, you've got quite the fan base, but remember, I top the list!
