derby

craig and i realized tonight that this is probably our last pinewood derby--untill we have grandkids i guess.  it was a fun one to end on.  isaac and craig spent a lot of time these past two weeks making his shiny car and it did very well.  isaac (or issac as the board said) finished fourth overall.   the first 45 minutes of the derby were spent racing head to head.  everyone got a turn on each of the four lanes to make the competition fair.  after the top four winers were named, it was a fun free-for-all, racing whoever you wanted.

 there was some discussion amongst the parents about whether we came to win or to have fun.  i definitely came to win.  and actually three out of the four parents i polled said they also came to win.  cindy said she came to have fun, but i suspect she wanted to win too.  president eyring was in attendance to watch his grandson race.  i didn't ask him if he came to win or to have fun.
