Remember that gorgeous sunshine we had (close your eyes and try real hard)? The kids decided it was the perfect day for a boat race. We turned a little of this...
into some spectacular watercraft...

This was no paltry boat race. We had to test our watercraft for airtightness. Fill out official entry forms. Name our boats. Pass a physical (ok, maybe not the physical but everything else is true)...
There was a formal ceremony before the race began. Including a speech, taking bows and applause (I think a few bets were made behind the scenes)... 
Let's not forget the celebrity photo ops...
and we're off...
After alot of shouting, running and cheering... 
along with a few technical difficulties and accusations of cheating...
We made it to the finish line...
A clear winner could not be determined on account of the cheating...
It was a great day at the races or is that rases, no it's races, rases, races, you decide!!!

You have the coolest COMPOUND ever! I just loved it out there. That little stream is such a gift for the kidlets. How fun!

How FUN, Laurie!!!! In an age of Wii and XBox... it's just extra beautiful and extra fun.
Lor,
I love what a wonderful, creative thing you did with the kids. No wonder they love to come to your house! You always make it so special for them.
A great Mother's day gift would be that photo album with some of Blake and Chelsea too, with the stories. (Just a little suggestion.)
