Pinewood Derby

Well, April 26th was the pinewood derby. Ian was, again, going for looks and not speed. (if you remember from John's blog, last year he made a hot dog in a bun) This year he decided he wanted to do a hummer limo. It turned out pretty cool. It didn't do very well, but he did win a couple of races, which he was excited about. I was impressed with how many of the kids chose to do unusual cars. You can see in the picture that we even had a spongebob car! I felt really bad for Ian because there were only 4 cars in his division, and he was the only one who didn't get a trophy. He said he didn't care, but I think he did. He said he'd rather have a bunch of cool cars, than win all the races. We'll see if he sticks to that line of thinking. He liked how his car turned out, and that's all that really matters. You're a winner to us, Ian! Keep being creative and having a positive attitude!
