Pinewood Derby

Tonight was Joseph's First Pinewood Derby!  He and Rick worked for hours and days on his car. Rick was really worried that it wasn't going to be very fast. He was hoping that Joseph would have a decent showing. But he was nervous.
Here he is ready to head over to the church.

It was a lot of fun. All of the boys were so excited! It was awesome to see all of the cars and families there.

Joseph excitedly waiting for it to start. He also enjoyed watching how the computer system worked.

Some of his races:

Just before the races were over, Joseph went to have his baptismal interview with the Bishop. He finished just in time for the awards ceremony.
He got an award for his car having the sharpest angles.

He also won first place for his den.

And got second place overall for the whole pack.

We were all super surprised but also so excited for him. It was a really fun night!

We're excited to try again next year. And Andrew is beyond excited to learn how to make his own car.
