Jacob's last Pinewood Derby! January 2015

 
Well, we've finally made it to the last Pinewood Derby.  I can't believe we won't have to build anymore cars.  Except, several people have brought up the fact that maybe we will have grandkids who need Todd's help, but if so, that's a while away.  So for now, we're saying we're done.  :)
 
The Woolleys (in our ward) have a son (Cameron) who can print out thin "paper sleeve" sticker sheets with most any picture on it.  He found a template on line for a Mincecraft pinewood derby car and printed some out for us.  Jacob was ecstatic!  And it turned out sooooo good.  Another plus?  No painting involved!!!  And that made Todd happy!
 
 

All the derby racers!
 


And here's a picture of all the cars...
 

 
Jacob didn't win any spectacular prize, or place first, second, or third, but you can see from the picture that it didn't matter.  Jacob had fun and so did we!
 
 
 
Jacob and his friend, Max Goff.
 


 
I can't remember what his award said....something random.  And everybody gets one of those, so no one walks away completely empty-handed.  But like I said before, it didn't matter.  Jacob loved his car!
 



And one last look for your viewing pleasure...
 


 
 Goodbye pinewood derbys!  It's been great while it lasted! (But I think I'm ready to be done.)
