Pine Wood Derby

Two Fridays ago we competed in our ward's annual Pine Wood Derby. We were both excited since we missed last years because we were flying home with Ava (which was much cooler). Rich had been planning his car for a year and he was so excited to bust out his Dremel to create it. I also planned mine far in advance but made it only a few hours before the race started.

Unfortunately we both came up big losers. Our cars were really slow, but not the slowest. Rich's wasn't very aerodynamic with Luigi on top and mine was just a big clunker. We all had fun and look forward to next year. I think Ava will have to make a car too.

Rich made the Super Blooper which is a car from Mario Kart (Wii Game).

I made a Lego car. I thought is was pretty clever because I can change and rebuild each year.

This is when we raced each other. Notice we are 3rd & 4th and significantly behind...Can you say LOSERS!!
