Pine wood durby

This is a little late. But this is what happens when you have two cameras and forget to down load pictures from both.
Ethan made a great car this year.  He drew a picture of how he wanted it to look and the helped loren carve it out and sand it down.  They did a fun paint job- now to see if the wheels stay on.
The races are quick now that the track is digital and keeps track of every cars speed.  The boys don't have to race everyone..anymore.  The cars race 3 heats and the computer keeps the best time which is then displayed on a digital board for all to see what place you are in.

No, Ethan didn't win.  He did have a fun time at the race and building his car with his dad. And that is what matters.
Loren checked the speeds of the 1st and last place car.  There was only 1/2 second difference, wow!!!

Fisher price toys

I love Fisher Price toys.  The are sturdy and last a long time. My mother still has a few from when I was a child.
After making it through 5 of my children, friends and a few years of preschool, this one didn't make it through Hope.

She loves to climb.  And this is what happened when she knelt on it trying to get on the top.
I'm going to try glueing it back together.
