We just had the Cub Scouts' pinewood derby last night. We (including an off-early [thank goodness] Ben) were there from about 3pm - 9pm. So a long afternoon/evening for us. I did break to get some ribbons, as well as took the boys home to get their shirts, pick up Malachi and his brother, and grab some dinner.
Anyways, a while back, we watched a cool video on some "science behind fast pinewood derby cars" or something like that. The video was really fun. But it didn't help us win. :) The boys didn't put a lot of effort in to their cars, though. They were excited and did spend a couple hours working on their axels, painting, etc., but that was pretty much it. They had a great time, though - along with all the other boys. The boys were great and supportive of each other - giving high-fives to one another, slapping hands, etc. It was fun to see them.
Here are a few pictures (We didn't even get any of just the boys and their cars. Whoops, but oh well.)
Most of the cub scouts - we were minus 2 in this picture. Front row: Justin, Braden, Jonas, Jarett, Kaden, and David. Back row: Miles, Dakota, Jesse, Andreas.
The boys watching their cars come in!
Jonas and David just having some fun.
Ha, what a funny picture! It's soooo intense watching your car come down the track!
The Bear den winners. Jonas took 3rd - he actually tied for it. Oh, and he won the balloons.
The Webelos den winners. Miles took 3rd as well. Fun stuff.
The overall winners! Jesse, Braden, and Jarett. I made those trophies, as well as each kids' "Pitt pass."
It was a good and fun evening for the boys!
