Pinewood Derby

Being eight years old entitles Elliot to be a cub scout and somehow we managed to get into scouting just in time to be a part of the pinewood derby!!!??? He and Alan had a great time working on his car and while he didn’t end up with the winning car, he did get the award for best craftsmanship! I didn’t feel too bad about not being able to help with the car, because I got to sew a bunch of stuff on his shirt!!!!

All the cars lined up with their awards. Elliot's car won "Best Craftmanship", and is fourth from the right.
