PiNEwOod dErBy 2009

Nate is the winner!!!

He won 1st place with his "Arrow" car that he and his dad made (yes Nathan Earl, Nate DID help build his car....Brian did the wheels and the cutting, but Nate was in on it ALL!!!)

At the last pinewood derby that he competed in, which was 2 years ago and happened to be his FIRST Scouting activity, he won with his awesome "Gecko" car....AND he helped A LOT with that one too! Jake was lucky enough to be allowed to participate in the actual event this year (Thanks Cub Master Earl!! Hey, and just for the record, Jake was part of the process in constructing his "Charger" car too!) Can you tell he LOVES football??? You can't see it here, but his car is shaped like a lightning bolt and the #32 on the front represents one of his FAVORITE former Utes players...Eric Whettle!!!!

Hayden and Jatzen showing off their SWEET rides!!!

These guys are Nate and Jake's buddies, they are pretty fun kids!!!


Brother Chamberlain is ALWAYS in attendace when we have a Scouting activity! What a good sport! He helped Raymond out and let him pull the rece trigger!!!

I award Brian The Cutest Daddy at the Pinewood....

"Now Hayden, can you tell everyone how hard it was for dad to build your car? Tell them what a goon I am with power tools...and how lost I am when it comes to sanding. Tell them that mom had to teach me the philosophy of "with the grain" and "righty-tighty, lefty-loosey" to keep us going! "

Man...where would that guy be without his Jeannie???

Let the good times roll!!!!


We have such FUN boys in our ward!

We REALLY liked Spencer's car too!! Very original AND creative!!!
