Pinewood Derby


He recieved the "Blue Venom" award. That made him pretty happy!




Aydon started scouts this past year and loves it! He made his first car with help from Dad. Problem was, when dad put the wheels on and glued the nails, some of the glue spread to one of the wheels and locked it so on Aydon's first run he ended about 2 feet behind the other cars. Aydon was pretty disappointed so Danny pulled the wheel off and removed the glue. From that point he jockeyed for first back and forth in first and second and felt much better in the end after winning a couple races. Seeing him out there with the other boys doing the scout thing brought back a lot of memories for Danny. That age is such fun and Danny is really enjoying being with Aydon and seeing him grow and mature. He's such a great kid, does so well at home helping us with his brother and sisters - AND really excells in school! As much work as it can be, it's so much fun having kids and we would not trade it for ANYTHING!
