Pinewood Derby

This was an exciting night Kyle was looking forward to for a while when the day finally arrived he was so excited. He and Joe worked so hard on his car. They had lots of fun doing it and I must say the hard work paid off because he came in 1st. This is actuall his second year in a row coming in 1st. Last year I was in the hospital with Kayelee, I made it to the derby but I don't think I ever posted about it. One of his very close friends Barrett came in with a very close 2nd. The boys had tons of fun.
I have been very proud of Kyle he is a very good Cub Scout. There is a boy down our street who likes to come to Cubs. Kyle has been inviting him and he has been coming. Joe and Kyle even helped him a bunch on his pinewood derby car. It has been a really good experience for Kyle. He is a really good friend and cares about other people. Getting 1st is so fun but there are so many more important things than 1st and he cares about those things too.
Here are some highlights from the night.
