We went to our first pinewood derby last night for Dallas. We were sure excited to see how Dallas' car would do. We got there a little before 6 since that was the time the derby was suppose to start. Lisa and her kids and dad were already there waiting when we pulled up. They kept waiting for more people and didn't actually get things started till 7 o'clock. Dallas' car was pretty consistent-coming in 2nd a lot of the times. One time he even came in first but two of the other cars jumped track so they redid the whole race. We hope next years race will go a lot smoother. We are sure proud of Dallas and the hard work he and daddy put into the "Silver Dragon".
After the derby we went to Baskin Robbins and had some ice cream. Unfortunately right before I got a picture of Dallas eating his sundae, he hit his funny bone and started crying. It was a rough night.

Hey Dallas!! You sure have one fine looking car!! We're glad that you and your Dad got to spend time together making it and we know that you will have a lot more fun times together making new cars! You did an awesome job and you are a WINNER in our book!! Love you!
The Silver Dragon was AWESOME! It was the sweetest looking car at the Derby--and fast too. Good job, Dallas!
Thanks for inviting us. Now you can start planning your design for next year's car. :) That's the fun part.
Lucky you, getting to go to Baskin-Robbins for ice cream!
I am proud of you Dallas! Your Silver Dragon was the coolest car at the derby, and I am sorry that they were so unorganized for your first derby. Life isn't fair sometimes, but now you have next year to look forward to ! YUMMY ice cream!! Good job Dallas!
