Pinewood Derby weekend

Saturday, January 24 - Sunday, January 25

In the morning we went to Sapusucker Woods to hike. I was surprised at how many more birds we saw there than just around our house. We saw chickadees, woodpeckers, tufted titmouse, cardinals, blue jays, mallards, and one Canada goose.

In the afternoon we were off to the races. Oliver and Benjamin participated in the Pinewood Derby with a cub scout Pack here in Ithaca. We were surprised when Benjamin took first place and Oliver took second place for the Pack. Chad and I were a little embarrassed since it was the first time we'd been to that Pack, but everyone was very nice about it.




On Sunday we went back to St. Catherine's parish and the boys went to faith formation class after Mass. Isla enjoys the children's liturgy during Mass. Then in the afternoon we went to see Curious George Live at the State Theatre in downtown Ithaca.
