Gentlemen...start your engines!

by teresa

The pinewood derby was a big success. Lots of kids and lots of families came out to have lunch and participate in the races. Three hours of races! As a spectator I thought it would never end. But the kids....they couldn't get enough of it. Ben came in 3rd in his age group (even got a trophy). Poor Nick...he had a good time...but walked away with no trophy. He was a little bummed after spending so much time getting his car just right....and his brother spending all of 3o minutes total working on his and winning a prize. Somehow...that's always how it works out around here.
Here's some of my favorite pictures of the boys.

You guys really did a great job on your cars. I'm glad you had fun. Congratulations, Ben, on placing.
