Pinewood Derby (and getting back in the game)

Soooo..... trying this again. Been awhile, so I don't know if anyone out there is still checking on us (hi Will!), but here we go. I'm starting with current stuff and if I get to it, maybe eventually I'll go back and include some highlights from the last year while I've been absent. (Yeesh, its been almost a year, that's sad). :(

Aidan had his first Pinewood Derby a few weeks ago. He was SO excited to finally be able to make a car of his own after watching Nolan do it for the last 3 years. He and Jim worked on his car, Jim did most of the cutting and painting but Aidan helped with the sanding and color choice.

Nolan had a ball game the day of, so we had to split up and Jim took Aidan while I did the baseball thing. I wish we could have all been there because Aidan won for the wolves. Needless to say he was very happy. He also won a certificate for most spirited car because he went with Gator colors (of course). Here are some pics from the day of.

Hopefully I'll be back soon with more!
