NasCubs

Wednesday night we had a cardboard car race at our Pack meeting. Totally cute and the kids had a great time. It was one of the best Pack meetings Mike has run. Yay, Mike!


The kids made cardboard cars at home and raced 4 laps with 3 pit stops:
  • tire change (take off shoes, turn socks inside out and replace shoes)

  • refuel (drink a box of apple juice)

  • clean windshield (spray water on face and wipe off)
Mike didn't worry at first about who he had race with who - so he lined up a Tiger and 2 Webelos to race in the first heat until we called foul and told him he needed to even things up. So he did, a little, but it still wasn't probably the most fair grouping ever. Turns out, we were wrong. The little Tiger had a rockin' pit crew and beat the pants off of the other kids, lol! He was totally cute and everyone was rooting for him!

Here's my kid, who threw himself down on the ground at the finish line. I think that's what we refer to in the parenting biz as a baby whiney pants sore loser.
