Powder Puff Derby 2008

Allison placed 2nd in her class with this year's Powder Puff Derby car. The derby was run on March 29th. She decided to name her car "Speeder". I'm just glad the wheels stayed on again this year. You can see the results from last year here: 2007 posting

Annie Ant by Allison

Today is National Teacher Day, so we have a special update for you.

Allison has been working on a short story that she delivered to her teacher today to tell her how "perfect" a teacher she has been. She had no help from us until she asked us to staple it together. We were quite surpsied at her secret gift which she has been working on for a couple of weeks.

You can read the entire story and see the wonderful cover drawing right here.

Powder Puff Derby Finish

Allison finished 5th in standings. She was slotted against 17 other cars, as they combined two age groups together. We're just happy the wheels stayed on. Her car ran six heats, and was close enough to be competitive, clocking a trip down the track at about 2.95 seconds. The winning times we just under 2.9 seconds.

Allison's "Paint a Horse" party

Today we had a birthday party for Allison at Imagine That. Dianne made a cool horse cake to fit the party theme.
