Our ward held its 1st Annual Pinkwood Derby. The girls were asked to build pinewood derby cars, like the Scouts do. The girls were so excited!!! Ally called it the "Pink race car party" So we dressed in Pink and got ready for a Girls Pinkwood Derby night. Look at Alyson's face in the picture, I know it's not the best picture, but she can barely contain her excitement.
Cheering on the other cars and girls. Like any good party- there was dinner involved.
Waiting for her car to race down the track.
She loved to run down the side of the track and follow her speeding car.
All the cars the girls built. There were 17 total.
Alyson's car- #7. It was made for her by Jonathan's aunt. I thought the activity was just for older girls and when they told me everyone could do a car, it was already race day, so Jonathan's aunt let Alyson use her car. She ended up winning 3rd place overall!!
Holding up her trophy.
Her pink certificate.
We had a lot of fun racing cars. I think we are going to keep up the tradition. Next year, Daddy gets to help her build the car. He's already talking about it.
