Pinewood derby race






Oh the time of year has come again that we raced our little 5.0 oz car down a track. Stephen did really well again. He placed 7th out of about 40 cars. He came up with the design a long john donut. And he did the sanding. I painted the sprinkles as it got to be the morning of weigh in and we were still painting.

There were judges and there were friends and in the end the boys had a really good time. Stephen got to go out ice fishing after the race. So it was a fun filled day till the end!

This is the last year Stephen will be in the pinwood derby as he will crossover come the beginning of March. So the 2nd year Weblos carried the flags. It is odd to see this year coming to an end. To see cub scouts come to an end as we will now move forward with boy scouts. Though I am sure we will get 1 year off and then be back in as Matthew can not wait for cub scouts so when 1st grade rolls around I am sure we will be back to tuesday night meetings.
