They really loved it and Papa and I really enjoyed watching them love it :)
J loved it because it was new and exciting and his car did really well.
L loved it because it was cars and racing and FUN!! (His car also did really well but he hardly noticed!)
E loved it because well.. because her brothers loved it and she loves them.
R loved it because she got to cheer on the other kids and dream about when she could do Awana.
J3 loved it because he is a boy and he loves cars. He loved to clap when we clapped.
Baby G could care less about car racing but Momma was there, Papa was there, J3 was there and she had smiles for anyone who came her way!
L placing his car! He really worried the 1st time he had to go up there and put it on the track so Papa went with him the 1st couple of times. Too many people for him.
L waiting with a friend to see who's car won! L's car won almost as many times as J's. E's car did really well too and was only ever beat by one of her brothers cars!! (and maybe one other?)
E picking up her car at the finish line :)
J placing his car.. I think of all the times he raced he only came in second once!!
E placing her car!! Oh so carefully. I really liked how they had the ladder for the smaller kids. Made the little kids feel like they were important!
J and his trophy for the second fastest car in the Prix!!
He was pretty excited!!
Their home made and painted cars now race around my living room, sleep in their special boxes, and have an active part in everyday life. They are already planning their cars for next year and J is already planning on bringing home another trophy :) This time he wants the 'most original' trophy :)
What a fun way to learn about playing fair, playing to have fun and that life is not about winning or losing but about living for God and treating others the way you'd like to be treated, no matter what life throws at you!
