Pinewood Derby

Oh boy...the time has come to prove true craftsmanship. Do all boys and their Dad's dream about winning the 1st place trophy for MONTHS before the event? Needless to say, this has been a fun project for both my boys! Only one more month until we see how the cookie falls...or rather how the car flies!

I would post a picture of the car, but then I would have to kill you. I guess you'll have to wait until AFTER the derby!

Last weekend was our big derby. Because our church troop is so small, we don't compete with just our unit. (My boys were the only ones who built cars from their troop.) So we participated in the one at the mall for the whole council. It's a good thing they had fun building their cars with dad (and painting them with Mom) because, despite the tears of disappointment, that is the only trophy they have to display. If only my boys had the attitude of the little boy who was just happy his car actually made it across the finish line! :) Best of luck to Justin.
