Start up your engines!

Last week the boys had their pinewood derby. They love love love their derby. Matt and the boys had worked for days on getting their cars ready. Hayden wanted to have a police car and Carter wanted a dragster. They sanded, painted and gloried in their cars. On the big night, we celebrated Carter's birthday too. This was Carter's last pinewood derby and so he wanted to go out with a big bang. He did a great job and had a very fun time.
