We had our annual pinewood derby event. I was so proud of Andrew and Brian. Brian didn't micromanage Andrew while he built his car. He helped Andrew learn how to use a miter saw, drill press, and then let the boy sand the bejeebers out of his little car. Andrew loved every minute of the prep. Then they took the car out and painted it spiffy and Andrew added his favorite spider man stickers from his sticker collection.
Then the day of the event came. Andrew helped with the Flag Raising ceremony.
I love a boy in uniform!
Then the racing begun!
20 boys, 20 cars, 20 excited dads waiting to see if their.....er....I mean the boys cars did well.
Ethan was so envious of Andrew and his dad that Brian helped Ethan make his own car. It was modeled after the new 2009 Camero.
Andrew with his buddies Gavin and Kennon. Andrew's car was not so fast but it was pretty spiffy looking. He learned alot about where to put the weight on the car this year and it will be faster next year!
