Tucker's first pine wood derby...

Tucker had his first pinewood derby. I was a little nervous, because in true Ben fashion he waited until the very last minute to help him finish it. We went online and found a design that he wanted, and Ben made it happen. It was perfect for him, and he loved it so much! 20150324_175223

They left these little holes for the weights, they had to go to weigh in early and didn't know how much room they had to work with.


Anyway, it was a fun night! I had never been to one before. The very first race he won his heat. To say he was excited would be an understatement, and from there it went a little downhill, but not awful! :) He ended up getting 7th overall, and he was pretty happy with that. Not too happy because he wanted to get better, but it was still a fun night!

And they even had a play area for the little kids because it does get a little long!
I love this little pinewood derbyer of mine!
This is how this boy came home from the night. He somehow got a hold of some chocolate and I had no control.  He is such a turd!
