Goodbye Cub Scouts!!

For the past 6 years I have had a son in Cub Scouts.  We've raced in 7 Pinewood Derbys, have dined at 6 Blue and Gold Banquets, and have attended countless Pack Meetings.  Tyler especially has loved these years, and they have now come to a close.  With Tyler turning 11, he has left behind the world of Cub Scouts for the larger world of Boy Scouts.  I'm feeling a little sad about this transition, since it's the end of an era for us!  Thankfully we had one more Pinewood Derby to race in, and a big award for Ty right before his birthday.  Tyler and Bryan were especially proud and excited about their car this year, and had big hopes for it.  After an exciting (and emotional!) derby, Tyler ended up winning 2nd place.  He was thrilled!  As you can see from the pictures, he (and the whole family!) got pretty into it!  It was really fun.  I wouldn't be surprised if we crash it next year, just for the fun of it!  Next up came the Blue and Gold Banquet, with Tyler earning his Arrow of Light.  He's worked hard, and was very happy to earn this big award with two of his friends.  Way to go, Ty!  And goodbye goofy Cub Scout cheers and crazy boys!!!
