Last night Noah experienced his first Pinewood Derby! After weeks of working in the garage with his dad, his hard work was put into action. Noah had accidentally left his car in Dan's car and Dan took it to Alamosa with him so he had to overnight it to us! It arrived the morning of the Derby and we couldn't have been happier!
We got to the church and Noah's eyes were as big as quarters to see the track in the middle of the gym. The races began and after a few glitches Noah's car ran it's first race. He did so great and came in 2nd for his Den. He was thrilled and his face was enough to put tears in my eyes. They took the top two from each Den and raced the cars again and Noah came in FIRST place overall if you can believe it! I thought he was going to pass out! It was a great night and even though his car was challenged afterwards it was still worth it. He woke up and had the breakfast of champions this morning smiling all the while!
We love you buddy, great job!!!!

Way to go Noah! How cool for him to score first place - that's some good father-son bonding right there.
Awesome job Noah!!! I hope you were king for the day and all the peasants (your family) did everything you told them to do! I am so proud of you!
I guess I'll have to take a "pinewood derby lingo class". Challenged meaning . . .???
