That's some fast food

Josh had his very first pinewood derby last week! This is something Trav (and Josh) had been looking forward to for a long time. When Trav asked Josh what kind of a car he wanted to make, Josh said "A twinkie car!" I'm pretty sure that's not what Trav had in mind.

But here's all the cars lined up ready to go.

 

Let the races begin!

 They each had to race 6 races and Josh's twinkie car actually did really well and won most of the races!

 

He got 3rd place overall which didn't actually win a prize, but he won the prize for the most creative car. With the prize being a 2 liter of soda.....that was right up this boys alley.

 Way to go Twinkie team!

 Frosting and all....

 With summer quickly winding down, Trav was dying to go camping. Jonah and I still weren't up for a camping trip, so this awesome husband of mine packed up 4 kids and without a reservation anywhere headed off to the Uintah's to go camping!

I know I can't give the trip justice for what went on since I wasn't there but I heard that it was a super bumpy road to drive on, they only caught 2 fish, they miraculously got a camping spot (not in the campground though), it was really cold at night (to Josh's dismay he had to wear pants) but they had a great time!

Here's some pictures from their adventure....

 This is a picture of cooking the fish. William has officially sworn off eating fish after watching daddy gut one. He used to like it but won't touch it anymore. I feel the same way, buddy.

 I'm glad they had a good little getaway, and I'm especially glad I was able to have a quiet-ish weekend at home with my new little man.
