Awanas Grand Prix

Caleb & Gavin participated in Awanas at our church this year & they loved it. They actually enjoyed it so much that they once chose to skip out on a Mavericks game to go to Awanas. That makes me so happy! Anyway, at the end of the year they held a Grand Prix. This was our first one & Scott is not good at building things or putting things together. It is usually my area. I decided to sit this one out and let the guys figure it out.

They bought cars at Hobby Lobby and put them together the night before the race. I didn't say anything... Well, they were not put together correctly & Gavin's did not even make it down the ramp all the way. It was kinda sad.

To Gavin it was extremely sad. There were a few tears and he called it "public humiliation." I totally understood. I felt the same way and I was not racing a car. It's tough being so competitive!

Both boys had fun and learned something. They have big plans for next year. I'm just hoping Scott and I can figure out how to keep them from being humiliated again :-)
