Last night was the big Pinewood Derby for Cub Scouts. Will just turned 8 so now we have two little Scouters, which is great...but it also means two derby cars and double the achievements to pass-off. The boys got a good head start on their cars with Dad's help and they made their own paint designs.
You never know how well their car is going to do and it's always a little nerve racking because you don't want your son to feel let down.
Turns out - Will had the fastest pinewood derby car this year! He won 1st place!
He was so stoked and it was so great to see him so happy!
BS was super surprised at his own car building skills :)

At one point in the derby both Will and Sambo were racing against each other and I was a bit torn and worried about one of them losing to the other. Sambo's car did well but nearly as fast as his little brother's. I could tell he was a little disappointed and jealous but he took it like a man.
Our little Wolf and our little Webelo:
What a fun night!!!
...Until Will accidentally dropped his trophy and car in the church parking lot and they broke. He was trying to carry too much stuff including a bag of popcorn and a cupcake. He had a total meltdown! So sad! Good thing for hot glue...we got them patched up and good as new. He has them proudly showcased on his dresser in his room. Good job great man!
