Here are the other Den 6 cars...our friends was the Jeff Gordan car...yes, that is an eraser shaped vehicle...the scouts, er, their dads get very creative, as you can see!...there was also a cell phone shaped car...and a bullet shaped one...go figure.
Our friends entered the M&M car alongside Kata's...their daughter is Kata's BF...at least while they are together...love that 4 and 5 year old loyalty.
Awwww....can you feel the excitement?
It's Alex's turn...he's on the far left...
that's not bad...2.425!
And....now on the slow track...far right...2.458...
In the middle....
awesome...2.442!!! Feel like you're there...it took a good 2.5 hours...but the boys' enthusiasm kept bubbling over on all of us...and they served donuts and Starbucks coffee...love our Pack...they know all of the Things That Make Us Happy.
And this is why we do it...see his expression? We did so much better than last year!...Many thanks to our friends, Jeff and Brandi, who helped us out...each year, a little better...Alex was so proud...our axle held this year and didn't crack...for those of you keeping track...Alex was very close to placing third in his Den...his buddy...the Jeff Gordon car...beat him out by 0.005 seconds...file under Things That Will Keep Ken Up At Night.
And then as we were driving to ballet class...I saw all these protestors...with American flags...they were the Patriot Guard...a group of motorcycle enthusiasts who support fallen soldiers...it was the memorial service for one of our own here in Reno...Staff Sgt. Sean Gaul...may he rest in peace....
Here's to fast cars and freedom...baby.
