First place at the pinewood derby!!!

Dawson's car took first place at the pinewood derby this year!  It was so exciting!  He designed this car and did a ton of the work himself.  Love the silver color he picked out too!  We were so shocked to have him win.  We were brand new to the ward and hadn't met a lot of the people yet, so it was great fun to have a winning car and have something to talk to new people about.  When people asked if we win the pinewood derby every year...  (because he smoked the other cars) we said no, some joked and said it must be the altitude!  Must be.  (Some of you may remember Dawson's disappointment in last years car being the slowest at the derby....  if so, you know how fun this was for us to see him win!)

The top three cars in each ward derby went on to the stake derby.  Dawson went on the the stake derby and took 5th place out of 22 cars there.  Go Silver Bullet!  (That is what he named his car).
