Jordan's Tooth

Well, it finally happened! For those of you who saw Jordan over Christmas, she had a tooth that was seemingly going to fall out any time. However, New Year's came and went, she started back to school, time marched on ... all with that tooth still hanging there. This morning, however, it finally came out, and she's very excited about the Tooth Fairy coming tonight.

Pinewood Derby



Drew raced in his Pinewood Derby for Scouts tonight. His entry was a car shaped like a Hershey's chocolate bar. One picture shows the other cars in his age group. It was a pretty impressive bunch, but Drew took 1st place in design! He went on to get a 3rd place trophy for design for the entire pack.

His car not only looked good. It was also fast! Another picture shows his car winning one heat by such a great margin that the other cars are not even in the picture! Drew went on to win 1st place for the fastest car in his age group, and again finished 3rd in the entire pack. (The pack had over 40 cars racing.)

I believe Drew now gets to take his car to Districts to race against all the other packs in the Northland. To be continued ...
