Pinewood Derby Race

This year the Gulf Coast Scout Council really went all out. They connected with the T.T. Wentworth Museum and each pack could have their race there on the "official track". This was great because it wasn't wood and so the lanes were more equal as far as straightness, and curve and all that. They had a fancy pants computer program as well! :) Jeffy's car did very well. He came in 3rd when we raced with 4 packs on our Raceday. (He would have gone to the district race anyhow since there are only 3 Bears in his pack.... But still!)

After the District Race in two weeks, The T.T. Wentworth Museum is going to have an entire display about pinewood derby cars. It will be neat to see. Jeffy is going to display his cars from this year and last year.

Dad is digging out some of the boys old cars so they can be placed on display as well.

Back to School

It is that time again... Back to school for all the Stewart's. The kids were not QUITE ready to return. Jessalyn was more excited to return than Jeffrey. I am excited to be at the beginning of the end... At least this part of it!

Just this one more semester.... Yeeeehaaa!

Silly Hat Party

For New Years Eve we had a Silly hat party, So here are a few of the highlights. I am happy to report that this year it was better than last as everyone made it to ring in the new year! We made Homemade Pizza's! Yummy!




And we had 2 craft Projects... One was to make "Lightning Bugs" using glow-in-the-dark paint and soda bottles and then to design/ decorate the craziest hats!




We also played some Wii while we waited for the magical first moments of the new year. And we had alot of fun with Sparklers!!!!
