Pinewood Derby!

If you missed this post originally, here was the background that went with it. So cute!
I just had my first experience with the Pinewood Derby. We are sad to report that Jyson's car did not fare well, but it was a fun experience. I think the best part is getting the car ready. Here are a few pics of the process:
Notice the safety glasses and especially the ear plugs (in case the sanding gets too noisy?)
I love the super intense concentration...
Jyson's favorite colors: red, orange, & yellow.He was awarded "Most Firey Hot." Good job little man. Better luck next year.

Michelle, I'm a blogophile. I love reading friends' blogs. I don't know how long ago you started this blog, but eventually I will have read the whole thing back to the beginning. :-) It's my favorite Sunday activity.

I love the pictures of your family and the stuff you've written. You might just be the sweetest stepmom ever. I'm sure your kids love you.

Okay, this is too long -- I'll leave room for other comments! :-)

Way to go Jy-man! He looks very official in his cub uniform. I love the current background of your blog. Now that I'm a webelos den leader, I should get a blog going of our pack. :) Okay, I can barely blog my own family.
Cute pix!!

Michelle, I love your blog, too. Especially the picture of you in your wedding dress. That is awesome. It is fun to see you sometimes on Wednesday nights. I'd update you on Tiffany, but I never see her. You may have to update me. Looks like you are having a great time!
