Pine Wood Derby

We knew pinewood derby was coming up, it was planned to be a big father/son project. We got lots of fun stuff two different blocks of wood, paint, decals, some stuff to add hubcaps, etc. Unfortunately we had the date wrong. So about 5 hours before the meeting we found out he had to have his car that night. Hubby was busy at work so it became a mother/son project. Unfotunately this mom has no experience. It ended up being the exact shape that the one block of wood came in, no way was I trying to shape wood, and the hubcap thing was way too complicated for me. We made it though, not the fanciest car but by the time hubby and Brae left for scout meeting they had a car. HHe got 3rd place...here are some pics from the den pinewood derby, the big county race is in a few weeks so Brae and hubby can build another car for that one if they want.
