Pinewood Derby

This was Jared's last year at the Pinewood Derby. He is now a Weeblo and will be heading off to Boy scouts in July! WEIRD! Boy does time fly! Jared designed his car himself with help of our neighbor helped cut it out and then did the design on the top by himself. Wow he's growing up!



He just finished adding his weights and getting his "official weight".


Greasing his wheels. :-)


A little "Move it Twister" before getting started...


A few of the cars. Once they've been "officially weighed in" and signed in, they can't be touched.


Getting the board all the up.


Some of the "big kids".


Heat one...


Our little neighbor boy came along too.


Goof ball!



I think Blake was very excited! He has won every heat.... we'll see if he can beat the other undefeated one!


All the boys! Great job guys!!!!!!!


Showing his award.... "Most creative"


The "big kids" :-)

Week 4

I have begun to really enjoy thinking of what to post each day. The different events of the day, challenges, memories, which one to choose, etc. It's also fun to see which pictures strike a chord with each individual.


So here we go...


Last Monday we finally got some much needed snow! It was a small amount, But while running errands I snapped a pic. (I know it's SUPER close up, but I couldn't figure out how to make it smaller... so there it is. LOL)



Since they got the keyboard, they have been practicing and challenging each other daily. They all love it thank goodness. :-) Here's Cai Lynn practicing before going to "Activity Days" at church.



Doing my weekly "Ruby grooming session". :-) She's so patient, and sweet. She's used to it by now.


The boys playing chess... on a Thursday evening.



Friday night was the Pinewood Derby. (More pictures to follow on that.)


Saturday was a long day of work, Michael at church basketball, picking Jared up from his friends, Cai Lynn working on her primary talk and lots of etc. There is nothing like a good book in the bath to end the week.


As usual we stopped to talk to everybody after church. Cai Lynn and I were a bit later than the boys and when we got into the car we caught Jared in her booster seat. HMMMMMMM


Have a great week everybody!
