ELI'S FIRST PINEWOOD DERBY!

Eli and Jared went to Brother Brice's house and he helped them for 4 hours build his car. Eli picked out the design he wanted and they went to town making it happen. Eli came home VERY proud of his car. He anxiously waited for race day. Eli loved waiting for his name to appear up on the big screen and then he would run over and load his car in it's spot and then head over and twist his hands in nervousness until his car hit the finish line. He ended up in 3rd place for the Webelos. He also got the "Sportmanship" award. I had to take the twins to their baseball game during the award ceremony so as soon as Eli got there he ran out to the car and got his trophies to show me - he was one happy boy! 

We pretended he was in first place since his name was at the top of the board
