Family Boat Race

There is a park by out house that has a little stream in it and every time I have driven by I think, wouldn't it be fun to make boats and race them down that stream. So a few Sundays ago I invited the family over and that is what we did. We gathered some supplies(Popsicle sticks, hot glue and some random things that were hanging around the house) and we all started building.

Dad and Zack


Uncle Tony, Uncle Kyle, Grandma, and Nick


Once we all got our boats built we went to the park to get ready to race



On your Mark! Get Set! Go!
Once we launched our boats we ended up with lots of spectators






We did 3 official races and had different winners every time, so everyone was a winner!!!
After the races all we wanted to see if putting bottle rockets in the boats would make them go faster. I am not sure this was the best idea, however it was lots of fun. We really just ended up blowing every ones boat up!
