Pinewood Derby

Here we are at the Pinewood Derby. Kent and Ethan made this car in the last few days before the big race. Kent warned me that he didn't know how to make one and told me not to tease him about it. Well, Kent has a way of being successful at EVERYTHING he does. He won 1st place in many of the first several rounds and took 5th place overall. Not too shabby!
Take a good look at the "Silver Bullet"

Ella was our little "flag girl." She had a great time watching all the cars racing (and eating pizza- have I mentioned that Ella loves to eat?)
Here is our bishop. He came in with himself handcuffed to the briefcase that held his derby car. It was hilarious. He had another briefcase inside the big briefcase, with a code. It was so funny. Our bishop is great! (Sorry, the picture is sideways-oops).
Ethan's friend Cameron was there too. His daddy and Kent are in the Elder's Chorum Presidency together at church. Both of their daddies did very well.
This is Kent's boss Gary (refer back to Christmas break). His car took FIRST PLACE OVERALL! Congratulations Gary. Everyone teased him about getting his car checked out for steroids. Good one! (sideways again- sorry).
Ella and I had lots of fun running around the gym and cheering everyone on!

I love this post! It's darling. And Nattie, your pictures are getting better and better. That one of all the cars is darn close to professional. Is this with your new camera? If not, I can't imagine how well they will look when you have it! (hint, hint Kent!). Love you!
