Bradley has had an exciting couple of weeks! He finished his pinewood derby car and was able to race it twice! First he raced it at the Santa Maria Mall at the Scout-O-Rama event, and then he raced it at the church building for the big Pinewood Derby. He didn't win any trophies, but he had a great time and has already said he is going to start designing his car for next year!!
At the Scout-O-Rama event they had dozens of booths set up by the individual troops with fun activities for the boys. We were there for HOURS...they had a blast!
Best news: Dad was able to be home on Saturday for the Scout-O-Rama. So even though he missed the pinewood derby at the church, he was at Brad's very first pinewood derby race. That meant a lot to Brad...and to James. Ben also had a ton of fun at the booths so that helped to ease the jealousy of not having his own car yet.
And the always supportive Sister along for the ride to cheer on Brad and scout out cute boys! ;)
Brad wins his very first heat! He actually won 2 heats out of 4, but they have a crazy accurate computer that measures and averages the speed of the cars and that is how they pick the top 3. So he was fast, but not quite fast enough!
The boys' favorite booth at the Scout-O-Rama!
