Gavin's first Pinewood Derby!

This was a long awaited day, ever since Gavin started Cub Scouts!!  

Such a  process to watch- coming up with the design, working on the car, seeing it turn into something.  I always think, 'Next time I'll be better about documenting the whole process,' but I don't.  And the nice thing is that since our boys are all 3 years apart, Matt will never have to work on two Pinewood Derby cars at the same time!

Ready to roll!
Winner!
I love this sweet face!!
And the Minion does it again!!
Of course, he got the "Most Despicable" award!
Gavin's car did pretty well!  He didn't make the top 3 but ended up 6th overall, which is great for a first-timer!  Of course everyone wants one of those top spots, but Gavin showed great sportsmanship.  It was fun to see him be so excited about the whole thing!
