Derby and Dairy Queen Day

Every Wednesday for the past 2 months Nyla and Jordan have diligently worked on their Pine Wood Derby Race cars at church. With the guidance of "Godly Men" they successfully completed their cars last week and are all geared up for the big race tonight....
I have the privilege of tucking in the 1st place finisher for the 2nd & 3rd graders in the Pinewood Derby Races at our church. That's right - Nyla and her pink and blue race car competed in the Race and with mom, dad and Jordan cheering her on she cruised right into 1st place!

Now - not to be left out - Jordan did run a good race. His bright blue race car placed 2nd in the first heat but couldn't muster up the horsepower to finish the Championship round. We are very proud of the work he put into his car.

As many of you already know - We tend to celebrate events in life such as marriage, adoption, soccer wins and even Pinewood Derby Races with a trip to Dairy Queen. Tonight was no different - we rolled into Dairy Queen ordered our ice cream treats and celebrated the 1st place and consolation winners!

  1. Way to go Nyla and excellent job Jordan. If you would have mentioned the race we maybe could have been there to cheer you on. Maybe next year. See you this weekend.
