Cars Pit Pass Printable

Project 5 of 52
I have been working on this years Pinewood Derby for my cub scouts. It is THE event of the year. I think the dads get as much of a kick out of the race as the boys do. Any of you in cubs scouts know just how true this can be. Still we have lots of fun. I decided to go with a "Cars" theme this year for our pit passes and awards. I found these award tags on Pinterest and decided to use them instead of doing new ones. Click on the picture to see the pin....

 

 They are smaller than what I usually use but I plan to have a ribbon on it and the boys can put it with their pit passes. It also saves on ink and paper which was a side plus. I plan to write the boys names in and laminate them to make lanyards. Since it is always lovely to find the work already done I am sharing this printable with you. It doesn't say "cub scouts" so you can use it for birthday parties too. Just click on the picture to get to the download.

Have fun!

I used RLR creations digital kit to make the passes. You can find the digital kit HERE.

A surprise party with lots of treats.

My dear sweetheart turned the big 40 this weekend. He isn't a 'needy' kind of guy. Just simple. Rather content to play Lego's with his boys. What do you do for this guy? Well, you invite all the friends over to just visit and enjoy their company. Of course Halloween is also his fav holiday so we'll make it a costume party.

I didn't know if I would be able to pull this off but it was worth a try. My sweet hubby never questions all my crazy projects. Between work, PTA, scouts, crafts, gardening, etc he just goes along with it all.

So I made these invites....

 When I said, "Honey, I am taking Josh to help me deliver these." he just smiled and said be careful.

Then when I bought loads and loads of goodies, I said they were for the PTA carnival (some of it was). He never questioned why SOOO much.

When I spent all day Friday cooking, he just helped out by doing whatever I needed done.

When I agreed to work an extra shift Friday night, he just sighed and said, "ok, we will miss you".

Little did he know.

The party that would await his arrival home.... My oldest called to give me a heads up.... Dad wondered who he was talking to but he covered well. Nicely done son.

We enjoyed Halloween crunch, Poisoned apples...

Mummy dogs, broomsticks, spider deviled eggs...

Goblin fingers, and yummy Cream of the crop cupcakes. Oh my oh my if these babies aren't tasty.

We had Key Lime and Pumpkin Spice, dear hubbies favs. Thanks so much Shelly!

Add a few Monster Munch meatball subs and Voila. Yummy!

We all dressed as the Avengers: Hulk, Black Widow, Hawk-Eye, Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor. We had so much fun.

And best of all...he didn't suspect a thing! He really did think it was all for the PTA carnival.
Happy Birthday Honey, I love you!
