Cubmobile Race

Erik is on the left, in his car, which of course was green!

After months of planning, stressing, sawing, painting, and advertising the day of our Cubmobile Race finally arrived. Six a.m. found Scott and I moving the porta-potty (that of course had been placed in the wrong spot), and then hauling about 150 bales of hay to line the track. By 8:30 people were showing up and we started at 10:00. I had no idea how many people we would end up having, but we had 28 boys enter, and about 100 spectators. I think all the boys had a great time, and we didn't even have any serious accidents. At the end of the race three of the Dad's decided even they needed a try down the hill.

I treated Scott to a steak last night, he definitely deserved that!! Today we have both realized, we are getting old!!! We have muscles hurting we forgot we had, but our goal with scouts isn't because we love doing all this work, our goal is that someday, when these little boys grow up and become Dads they will remember doing something like this instead of sitting home playing Xbox. Then maybe they will want thier kids to do something like this to.
