Pinewood Derby

Michelle's Car - "Pencil Car"
Ty's car - "Tiger Shark Car"

Here are two pictures Zack took. Ty's car did not do well in the first races. He won some of the end races and he was the fastest one out of the Wolf Den. He even beat me. That made him so happy. Thanks to Dad Bird and Zack, Ty and I had a car. Over all it was a fun night. Next year we will have a winning car. I have learned so much about making these cars.

Pinewood Derby is TONS of work. I am very grateful it is over. I feel like it was a good night and everyone had fun. One of our activities to keep everyone going when they were not racing was making race cars out of candy bars and fruit. It was a BIG hit.
This month is our Blue and Gold Dinner. Maybe in March I'll be able to take a little break. :)
Ty loves having me part of scouts, so that keeps me going. :) Have fun in the coming years Chelsea and Rachel. :) :)

So fun for Ty! So many memories of Pinewood Derby! I think it is the one activity even the dads go to.
