Pinewood Derby


Was so proud of Nick today. He and Bruce worked very hard on designing his pinewood derby car for the races today. They have to keep the the car at a certain weight, design it to look cool, and then race it against 32 other boy scouts. I was not able to go and watch this race last year because I was on bedrest with the twins, but I was able to go this year. (It still amazes me the cayous that men can create when they plan and run something. [Boyscouts] When women run stuff it just seems so much organized and calm.) Anyways, Nick had 4 heats with his car and placed 1st in each of those heats. Overall with speed, he came in 6th, head of 32 other scouts and their cars. Pictured here are Nick and his friends Sam and Luke. Sam took 2nd place and Luke took 5. (Just .001 seconds ahead of Nick. Overall, it was a fun day for all.
