Pinewood Derby winner!!!

For some odd reason, our pack decided to let the boys run the same cars this year if they wanted to, instead of making a new one. Jacob hadn't been to Cubs in a few weeks b/c of our insane schedule, so we were happy to hear that last year's car was an option! LOL

Jacob's car won first place in every race it ran - and, obviously, first place over all! Apparently the trick to Pinewood Derby racing is to make your car, then wait a year to race it - during that year, you let the car get knocked off the piano (several times), have your younger sisters run it off the end of the kitchen table (several times), somehow lose a wheel and then stick it back on w/ Elmer's Glue at the very last possible minute before the race! Who knew?? LOL

That is awesome! Way to Go, Jacob!

I was totally LOL about the Elmer's Glued on Wheel!
