The Pinewood Derby

I'm one of the Cub Scout Den Leaders. We only have a few boys so we had our kids and friends make Derby Cars too, so that the race would be more fun.
You can see Aleah in the pink shirt anxiously waiting for the race to begin.
Cheering on the Cars.
Everyone that participated got a certificate and ribbon. Aleah got one for "Most Religious Car". For some reason she decided to paint the Star of David all over her car.

Charlie and I got "Best Paint Job" - it was hot pink with purple and yellow Polk-a-dots. (Cam and Aaron would have been racing too, but they had a wrestling meet.)

We bought donuts for the Derby - Charlie had never had one before. After his first bite, he looked at me like, "I can't believe you've been holdin' out on me, Mom! Where has this fried goodness been all my life?"
