Pinewood Derby

So for cub scout each year they have a car race. the 'boys' build their cars and have a race day.
Last year was our first and our car came in last place. So this year we were determined to do better. We got books and hunted on the Internet for tips to make our car go faster.

How did we do?...... we won all but one race, making our car the fastest one there!!!!!! ( the race we lost was on a bad track!)

Oh course. tom being Tom it had to have a gun on it!, even if the race was held at the chapel.

The build team big smiles!

For those who have ask if mike was 'willing' to wear the cub scout leader uniform.

P.S.

I cut my hair... again.

Tom's 9th Birthday

Yes  my little boy is now 9 and not so little.
for one thing he can and does now out eat me! at meal time and still be hungry an hour later.

Also he is shooting up really really quickly too, so it will not be long until he is taller than me!

And he got big boy toys too......

when friends have a big gun, you just goto have one too.
