Day 3

 In case it isn't perfectly clear this is from Christmas Day!
After presents and breakfast we ran to the beach to place in the waves.
And because one beach just isn't enough we found another beach!

Pinewood Derby 2017

As soon as we got to the track the dad's got to work on our car!  Starting with the graphite in the wheels.  We haven't used it before and it seems to really add some speed to the cars!
 
 Next Brother Hazelwood help add the wheels until they were perfect; not too loose and not too tight!


 We weighed it and car number 8 was ready to race!
 He might not have taken first place, but he did have fun! Look at that smile!
 
 This is a watercolor car!
 So grateful for the team effort! Brother Cox cut this bad boy out and Brother Hazelwood helped sand it down until it was perfect.  When our boy didn't win first place Brother Hazelwood said that he was going to go home a cry a little and then get ready for next years race!

Good bye tooth!

I don't know if you can see his tooth necklace or not but he lost his third tooth during lunch..."I pulled it out." This kid is an animal! He only told me about the looseness of said tooth that morning and then, wham, we've got a tooth missing! Here's to many more missing teeth!
