Austin's first pinewood derby!

So Josh and Austin did their first pinewood derby. It was very exciting for both of them. After three weeks of them making the car I was so ready for them to be done! But Austin enjoyed it so much, well come to think of it, I think Josh might have enjoyed it a little bit more. So this was the boy's before the race! Yes Josh does have his game face on! Pinewood derby is serious business!
Austin was very proud of his car named Big Baby, he painted it baby blue with baby pink flames. Austin picked those colors on his own, not an ounce of help from me.
As you can tell Austin is winning. YAY! I was very proud of them! Austin was excited but if you know Austin he hated all the attention on him, he doesn't like to be in the spotlight. Also, he couldn't quite understand why if you were in the losers bracket you got to race more, he thought he should be racing more, after all he was winning. :) BOYS! 
This was Austin after he took 2ND place! Not bad for the newest member of cub scouts. Right? He did a great job! He barely lost the championship race, I think it was much harder for dad to loose than Austin. Poor Josh! :( 

This is Austin with the First Place Winner! Good Job Boys! Josh and Austin are already scheming their new plans for next year! Can you believe it. Boys and their toys! Congratulations Austin! Mommy is so proud of you!
