We had the fun experience of being part of our first pinewood derby last night. Kobe was super excited and I am pretty sure Dad was a little nervous as well. After all, there was a lot of thought, time and preparation put into that little car! Unfortunately, I can't say that we took first place (however, we didn't place last either so that is a good thing), but it sure was a great time and it was a lot of fun to see how excited the boys were as they watched their car race down the track. I think the Dad's are just as competitive as the boys are!!
I have to say that I think I got the biggest kick out of seeing Jason put so much interest into helping Kobe build his car. There were a couple of nights that he stayed up late hand painting the stripes and making sure things were "just right". We are blessed to have such a great Dad who loves unconditionally and would do anything for us.

Good job on your first car Jason. Nine pine wood derby cars later Bart is happy to get a two year break before its time for Carson to do it.
