Palmer's heros, the boys next door just finished up with the Pine Wood Derby. The rest of the kids in the neighborhood got really excited about it, especially Palmer. He was determined to make a "derby car." He brought home a huge chunk of wood (gotten from a couple redoing their deck)and was determined that we put wheels on it and make it into a car. Josh the great father that he is, headed to Lowes to find some wheels for a huge chunk of wood. As a miracle would have it they randomly had three pinewood derby car kits...I am not kidding. Lowes doesn't even sell those! They guy didn't even know why they had them so he just gave them to Josh.
Josh let each of the boys draw pictures of what they wanted and then Josh cut it out. They boys have loved having these kits so much that we have lost most of the nails and a few wheels, but don't worry, we will find them!
Our little intense Palmer was way into the whole project!
The perfect project for the boys. They thought it was pretty cool.
Josh loved helping the boys.
Good job huh?
Hunter liked painting the Derby, but was pretty tired. Stay tuned for the finished products.
