Pinewood Derby 2009






Tonight was our annual Pinewood Derby. Getting the cars ready this year was quite an accomplishment because we have been so busy. Brett was up until after Midnight on Friday night because the cars had to be weighed in on Saturday morning and left there until tonight. I had to hurry with work to make it over in time and I am sure glad that I did. Trevin and McKade ended up in the Top 4. The top 4 then race and the fastest car out of 4 trials win. McKade's car had already gotten the track record for the fastest time-twice so I wasn't too worried about his. Trevin ended up in 4th place which is awesome but he got beat by his brother who ended up in 1st place and that's where the problem lies. These two are so competitive. It wouldn't have mattered if they had come in 28th and 29th-Trevin got beat. In the end everything was fun and we were so excited that they both did so well. Congrats Boys!

So fun, it is never ideal to be the one who loses, especially to a younger sibling. Just means he'll try harder next year. Congratulations to both boys!
