Pinewood Derby - 2016

Wyatt LOVES the pinewood derby.  This is his second year and I love how he decides so easily and quickly how he wants his car.  So far it has been very simple designs.



He specifically wanted a spoiler.  We try hard to make a fast car.  We read up on the tricks, we file the nails, we pre-drill the axles, we try so hard to make everything so straight.  We always lose.  This year I told him if he loses three times he gets a blizzard.  Sure enough, he lost his first 3 races and was out of the competition.  He was such a champ and had such a good attitude.  Maybe it was the blizzard and maybe it was the fact he was a year older.

When I grow up I want to take photos like Mary!
