Boys

The Pine Wood Derby has come to town!

Benjamin got the "Cheese Wedge" prize for his car. Can you tell which one below is his? In this pack they have a tradition of cheese balls for snacks. Plus we had the cheesiest Pack leader ever emceeing the event. Lots of fun!


Ben put graphite on only 2 of his wheels (and hands) before they took his car for the race. He claims that's why he didn't win. :)


Ben was also in the colorguard. Handsome!


Ben and his friend Cody decided to box. The gloves belong to Marcus and his friends. The helmets to the previous owner. The fun - to the moms watching and the boys boxing!


Cody and Ben decided to take pictures with my phone. Here's Ben's pose. (Can you tell it's a floor shot?)


Here's Cody's pose. Seems like Cody has more experience at this. I'll have to ask his mom about that! LOL
Oh, I almost forgot! Jordan has an afterschool class working for the school district's tv station! You can see the shows at this link. Every 2 weeks he is assigned a story. He has to write, film, edit, produce and be in the story! Keep checking back to see the growing young man. We are so proud/happy for him!


So yes, we are settling in and have a rather boring life these days. But hey - we're sooo happpy! Life is good.

Your life is anything but boring! That little Ben is getting cuter and cuter every day! Can't wait to watch Jordan's school videos. It sounds like life is getting exciting at your house!
