All About Jace.....

Back in January Jace had his Pinewood Derby. Can you guess which of these cars is his??

If you guessed the Hershey's bar, you are correct. Jace chose this design mostly because it's his favorite candy bar and partly because he thought it would look cool.

cookie sundaes for dessert!

at an earlier pack meeting they made these car stands



It was a fun night and all the boys had a great time!!



James Madison- 4th President of the United States...... that is who Jace chose to do his Great American project about. He had to research,  make a poster, a PowerPoint presentation, write a speech and dress in character. Then he set up in the hallways of the school with his peers while other students came around and listened to their presentations. The whole class did a great job!



Ready to present!

We made the wig out of a plastic grocery bag and cotton balls. We had some good laughs making it, especially when the hot glue melted through the plastic and stuck to his hair! No harm done!

On March 4, 2011 I had the honor of going with Jace's class to the Atomic Testing Museum. Quite interesting to check out, crazy stuff but I guess necessary to defend our country.

This is Knievals motorcycle and jumpsuit..... obviously nothing to do with atomic bombs! There was a portion of the museum that had Vegas memorabilia..



BOMBS AWAY!!!



Just this week Jace had Brett over and they came across this here lizard. This lizard must have fancied them because it would just sit on their finger or shoulder and never tried to escape. They made it a little habitat in a plastic container where it peacefully dwelt.

This little guy just hung out on the front of Jace's shirt!

 Last but not least a quote from Jace that I found quite amusing:

  "Mom, are you sure you can drive in those heels?"
