Pinewood Derby

Jacob has absolutely loved being a Scout. He received his first rank on Thursday night. He is now a Bobcat! As part of the ceremony, he had to pin a Bobcat pin on my sweater. He pinned it upside down and he must do a "good turn" before he can turn the pin right side up.


The Cub Scouts also held their Pinewood Derby on the same night. It was a lot of fun watching the boys get so excited when their car raced.

The competition was Double elimination. Although Jacob's car won several times, the only good video I got was when his car finally lost. (Sorry, Jacob!). Jacob's car is the gold one.


After the Cub Scout Pinewood Derby, they held a Ward Derby so Ryan was able to race his car. The boys (especially Kelly) had a great time making their cars and even more fun racing them. They picked up lots of good tips and are already planning their cars for next year!

Angie - how come we haven't seen a profile photo of you during this pregnancy? I can't even tell you are pregnant in ANY of the photos! Please post one before you have the baby!!
