Pinewood Derby Car Progress

Official Tiger Cub!

J loves the cub scouts! We are in a fantastic troop. Last night was the "Blue and Gold Dinner" where badges and awards and advancements happened. The theme was Chinese New Year and we had Chinese food catered in. Apart from it being a bit lengthy for a 7 year old to sit through it was a total blast! The leaders told jokes and did skits in-between the groups getting awards and that really livened it up! J got his Tiger badge! YAY!

This is J's pinwood derby car ready for coat #2 of gold paint. He really has done the huge majority of the work on this car all by himself. Daddy only did the work with the dangerous tools.

J blasting on coat #2 of gold paint. We bought a trigger attachment for the spray paint can that makes it a lot easier for him to paint. When we did his space derby rocket he had a hard time pressing the nozzle with two fingers and aiming.
