Pine Wood Derby

Pine Wood Derby 2011 was so much better than the first one 2 years ago.  Brother 1 and Steven are starting to get the hang of how to build a faster car.  Adam was excited about the design of his car as well as the finishing work (hint-I cheated and bought a wrap that he adhered similar to a child's tattoo).

Here-Adam is placing his car on the track. 
Cheering for his car...



End of the racing-he came in fourth overall, but was given an award for best decoration.  All the cub scouts were so good to each other-really cheering each other on and giving each other a pat on the back.  That helped so much.  Adam's sportsmanship was much better this year than in the past. 
It was a fun night for all.
And for the record-we only have 9 more derby cars to go....

I miss pinewood derby. Maybe next year Gavin will be eight before they do pinewood derby. It's so much fun to watch! Some years in our ward the mutual kids all make one. That is a blast to watch!
