race day

eli had a car race for his AWANA club. the got a block of wood and some wheels and had to carve and paint it. eli decorated it with a 6 and a sticker with candles on it...candles? yes, candles...he said it was "like fire coming out of the back, like jets!" oh, that makes more since!

things are never calm when you get these two together...

lyla loving every minute of cheetos consumption...

it was super cute how he was holding her so she wouldn't fall off

this was serious business...they had the racers names up on a screen, sensors to judge the winner and a video camera just in case...it was pretty sweet.

eli's was the second car from the left...

and he got FIRST PLACE for cubbies!!! Yey! after all the divisions had raced, the did a race off to find out the fastest car in the tournament...he got second overall. he was so very excited to receive his very first trophy...

adam had to work on race day, so we dropped by to celebrate and show off the trophy...
