St. Paddys Day/ Pinewood Derby 2012

St. Patrick's Day was also Pinewood Derby day for our stake!  The cultural hall was full of LOTS of green.  In fact there was a teen aged girl that had green on from head to toe.  And the cutest little baby walking around in a leprechaun suit.  It was so sweet!  We were all sporting green, but David refused.  Needless to say, he got pinched, A LOT. 

Anyway, so Nathans car, which he named "Freedom Fighter", did pretty good on the track.  He ended up getting 4th place in speed and 3rd place in show.  That is also what he scored last year!  We are beginning a little pattern it seems. 

The races were LONG.  Instead of racing with individual troops/wards, they had the races with all the wards combined with the entire stake.  It made for a long morning.  We got there at 8:30am and they didn't get over until after 1pm.  The kids had fun, but we all had grumbling tummies by the time we left! 

YEA for Pinewood Derby's!!  Great job Nathan!!
