Ready, Set, Go!

Our kids always look forward to the Awana Grand Prix at church and this year was no different!

Every year when the Grand Prix is over they begin talking about next years car.  Each year H.O. says he is going to buy the block of wood and start early on getting the cars ready.  That sounds great but that just is not reality.  It always comes down to the last couple of weeks busily trying to get them all ready.  Well... this year was no different except instead of starting the cars a couple of weeks before the race they were started six DAYS before the race!  Life has been a bit chaotic around here!!  And... the kids car ideas were a bit more difficult to make, but wonderful daddy got it done! 

Yes, the little guys look thrilled that mommy called them away from playing so that I could take a picture!

I really think H.O. should get a trophy for building six cars in six days!  Quite a few late nights for him!


When race morning came around the kids were excited, even our biggest kid!  The cars were finished and ready to race!


All the kids cars did well finishing well in quite a few heats.  Abby came home with 2nd place and Carrie Anne received 3rd place!  Taylor won 1st place for the leaders!  They were all very excited!


And now, they are planning next year's cars!
