boat races ..

while cash and i were waiting for ms. barbara and speech therapy we looked thru a magazine .. 

it was one of those crafty parents magazines .. 

it had an article on making boats out of lids and a river out of foil and having races .. 

we have been saving lids all summer ..

wondering which ones would make the best boats 

this is my boat .. 

ellie made 2 .. a big one and a little one ..

this is cash's boat ..

here is our river .. 

you put the hose at one end and make the foil run downhill a bit .. 

cash kept moving my boat out of the way .. 

he cheats ..

what you don't see is lucky the dog ..

he thought this was a fun game to ..

he would wait at the end and then sneak up and grab the kids boats and then run off ..

lucky chewed up the boats and ruined the sails .. 

the kids screamed and cried ..

i laughed .. aloud .. uncontrollably ..
