Any funny things your parents used to say to you? Maybe something interesting you say to your own children?

Just wanted to share that the HubbaDood won a first place trophy in his den for the Pinewood
Derby this past Saturday. He was so excited! He has had the best time in his first year in Cub Scouts. He's all about doing things to earn badges. That's the one good thing I did at my Gatlinburg trip - I purchased a Cub Scout scrapbook and stickers so he can work on his own memory book. We have another competition this Saturday (districts) and he's looking forward to it. I have to toss in a picture of HubbDette - she stood strong and hung in there while HubbaDood (bubby) was busy winning.

Hi Anne, I found you through Susie's blog, I am enjoying my visit. Congrats to the Hubbadood on his win! Your kids are adorable. Scrapbooking is such fun, great thing for kids to be involved in.
Congratulations on the win, Hubba Dood. My, how pinewood derby cars have changed. When I was in cub scouts, all we had were the little skinny wheels held on with nails. Drive the nail in too far and the wheels didn't turn freely; not far enough, and they wobbled as the car went down the track.
My dad and I built two pinewood cars, both of which came out pretty cool. I'd share them with you, but I unfortunately didn't see any value in them, when I was in my teens, and threw them out.
Feathers - Thanks for visiting with me! Yes - we really like scrapbooking. I just wish I had more time to do it. I'm making a special box and place in the kitchen for my son's stuff (instead of in the dark basement where all MINE is) so we will be sure to make time for it.
Badoozer - I'm not the good parent either. I'm good and reminding The Hubbs to keep up with it though. I'm overwhelmed enough by what's required for home schooling (it doesn't take much by the way to overwhelm me) that I put The Hubbs in charge of Scout stuff. Luckily, The Hubbs loves to do it with HubbaDood. I don't give it too long before he's one of those Scout leaders.
Foo - The car still has nails for the wheels but the car that comes in the kit has grooves for the nails to rest in. It's too bad you didn't keep your cars. I've got a lot of things missing from my kid days. I guess I'll just have to enjoy my memories.
I tell them that their supersonic idiotic disconnected brain infected dilly dolly dum dums. I guess that makes me a bad mom. But I don't serve them crabs--that I don't do! I think I'll start now.
Hi Anne, couldn't find where to email you, so I'm leaving a comment here, knowing you'll get it.
RE: Wristbands
Yes, except that there doesn't seem to be an activity anytime soon. Where do you live? Do you have a Young Rembrandts again Monday or is it over? The next time I see is March 30th. I had hoped to be at the OCHE mtg. but it was the same exact night as the consortium open house. I could maybe drop them off while I'm doing errands sometime or we'd be happy to mail them.

Darlene - Crabbs & Icecream is pretty tastey by the way.
Cathy - I will e-mail you. Thanks!
First Place! That's great! I've been to my share of those and there is tough competition...good for him!
When we used to ask my mom what was for dinner she'd always say the same thing "Food"
Yes the pinewood derby brings back some memories.
Congrats HubbaDood!!
Congratulations Hubbadood on the victory.
Have a great week, Meow
