The Pine Wood Derby




Trevor and I must have done a pretty good job of getting his Pine Wood Derby car ready for the big races last weekend. We added a little weight to it before the races began, and our cut must have been pretty good. Despite this not being the prettiest car in the race, it was built for speed. His car finished first in five races and second in two. He had a couple of tough races early when a wheel stuck on one of the weights, but after we took that off, there was no stopping him. He was really excited and happy to see his car continuously speed over the finish line first. The top picture is of one of his celebrations. It was a fun day, and really good for Trevor's self esteem to have some wins. Papa and Nana come up from Cadillac to see him race, too.
