Awana has ended.

The Cisco Kid has been going to Awana for two years every Wednesday for two hours. Last year he completed his first bible book and he received his ribbon stating he has completed his 1st book.  This year he has been working hard to complete his second bible book.  Now that he is done he received a ribbon that states he completed his 2nd book. 

Returning home from a week long trip

A couple of weeks ago the Chief went on a business trip for a whole week.  When he returned he brought back lots of gifts for The Cisco Kid.  The Cisco Kid was shocked at what dad brought him.

 A couple of yo yo's

Some buttons.

A big Play Doh kit.

His own personalized ID badge.

 

End of the year Cub Scout picnic.

All of our activities are wrapping up until the fall.  Yesterday the Cub Scouts had an end of the year picnic at a park in Green Cove springs. The day was filled with playing on a very large playground and swimming in the community pool.  The park is along the St johns River with great views.  It has been a favorite place for us to go for years. 

 

Flea Market at School

Today there was a Flea Market at school where all the children had items for sale.  This was a learning lesson about business.  They had to fill out a bank loan application to get there business started and have money on hand to give change to their customer.  They also had to come up with a store name and sign explaining what they had for sale.   The Cisco Kid loves these special cookies we make.  They are Oreo cookies that are covered in chocolate. 

 Some of the 1st and 3rd grade classes came to our Flea Market to purchase items. As the children entered the class we gave them play money to spend in our class flea market. There was only one rule, they had to spend all their money. They could not save it or take it with them. For some of the third graders this was shocking. They have been taught to save their money and hearing the words spend it all, was shocking to them.  

  They had two hours to sell their items. He started out with 65 cookies and he sold every one of them.
