Pinewood Derby

Nathan had his first cub scout pack meeting. It was the pinewood derby! After some joint work on his car, Greg's car, and Katie's car we were off to the races! Katie won the award for the Loveliest car (car named Raspberry Lemonade), Gregory won the award for the Car with the Best Use of Decals (car named Lightning), and Nathan won the Mach Speed award (car name was Mach 5). Nathan also won 3rd place in the wolf den! Katie was 4th overall, and Gregory came in first in one of his races!

Here are some photos of the evening.

I can't believe Nate is in Scouts! Will that day ever come for me? I'd love to see some pictures of Nathan's baptism if you get a chance...either email them or post them.

Way to go on the cars, Bennion children! From the looks on their faces, it seems they had a great time. Cute picture.

The baptism is on May 3rd and we will post pictures for sure. Wish you all could be here for it! (He is so excited, by the way. In family prayers he always thanks Heavenly Father that he gets to be baptized soon. So cute.)

The awards were just perfect for each of their personalities. And I love the names they gave each of their car, it makes so much sense with each of their personalities. I love their faces as they show their car to the camera; Gregory looks like he is ready to race 200 more times. Nathan has that proud look of accomplishment, and Katie is just lovely!

Thanks for sharing!
