Awana Grand Prix! - November 2010

It was a group effort...a friend cut the shape of the car,  Aaron and I sanded (me - about 2 1/2 hours of sanding), Aaron and I painted...and Matt put on the wheels and decals!

Race 1 - Aaron's car is in the Green Lane

 Ryan watching intently

Race 2 - Aaron's car is in the Red Lane

Race 3 - Aaron's car is in the blue lane

Race 4 - Yellow Lane

 and the winner is...Aaron!

 Aaron's car won every race that it was in!  Funny thing was, Aaron didn't know why he had gotten a trophy until we told him.  He was pretty excited after that.

 That's our boy!

Proud Daddy!
