Bear Award and Pine Wood Derby


Caleb has worked hard this year and in July he earned his Bear Award for Cub Scouts. We were out of town a lot this summer so he received his award in September. This night was also Pinewood Derby Night. Since Tank was already moved to Colorado at the time and i have no woodworking skills, we took the easy way out and borrowed a car from Grandpa Eves and Brandon. We knew how it did in their Pinewood Derby so we(meaning me) did not have high expectations for this year.


Caleb is so darn competitive even though I explained to him that this car was better than no car at all, he still got upset when we didn't place 1st in any of the races. but the members of our ward were so great to step in and help a single Mom out by giving him tips and adjusting the wheels etc. I told Caleb next year we would enlist in the help of Grandpa Eves so we can get a higher place finish.
