Yesterday Kinley and I were having a fun morning of playing with dolls, reading and working puzzles when we get a call from Daddy at work. He invites us to "tour de pants," a tricycle race at his work. I giggled and asked why he had really called. Daddy was serious about this race, so we decided to take him up on his offer...of course I had to see men riding tricycles!
Well he wasn't kidding. This is an organized event with a real track, team t-shirts, concessions, emcees, trophies, the whole bit. Zach's team, the 99ers, got second overall. They were excited to say the least. I was so astonished at the sight I couldn't even concentrated long enough to get many pictures, but here's what I came away with.
Along with a team name, you must create a "tend-like" sponsor. His faux sponsor was Jay-Z! ha!
Daddy was the pit crew chief. His job was to give the driver a bottle of water after the driver pitted and ran around the trike 3 times. Are you envisioning the sight? Hysterical!
Here's K and DaDa chatting with the driver for the 99ers
Here's a view of the track and crowd

Glad we got to experience this! I found out this was the 4th annual!
Are you kidding me?!
We got a surprise visit from uncle K this week!
Many of you have probably seen it on the news, but there is
severe flooding at Camp Albert Pike in Southwest AR. I have such fond memories of this place as a child with many Girl Scout outtings and campouts.
Please pray for the people affected by the flood and for the rescue workers. So far 17 have been found dead and many more are waiting to see if there loved ones have been found.
