Car Show

Last weekend was Father's Day weekend. My dad was participating in a car show up in Salmon Idaho. Chris, Julie, and I drove up to hang out and have fun. For Dad's father's day gift I made him a cake that slightly resembled his purple GTX that he entered. We don't have a picture of it with the donut wheels on... :(

Chris wanted a picture next to this green car because it was a "Midget". All for you Abby!

Chris started drooling when he saw this car (even though it wasn't finished yet).

 Here's dad getting judged. He had to pop the hood. Notice how well his shirt matches the car though? There should be a prize for that.

 Chris though his dad would like this Mustang Mach 1 the most at the show.

 Here's my Uncle Ronnie's 52 Mercury. He won best of show and his car will be on the shirt for next years show... cool huh?! We're going to have to go again just to get the shirts.

Chris's latest best idea ever!

For FHE yesterday Chris had an AWESOME idea. We started making a timeline of our lives together. We haven't gotten very far. But it has been fun to remember everything in the last two years.  We're going to keep working on it as we go. but right now we haven't really finished 2008. Its hard to try to pick and choose to get things to fit, we have so many fun stories!

Fire!

For graduation, the highschool near us built a giant tower of pallets. The rival school came and burnt the tower secretly the night before the big fire was supposed to happen. The tower took over 2 weeks to build, and burnt to the ground with only a few neighbors and the police watching. The city of Rexburg decided that was pretty lame, so they donated a whole ton of pallets to the school. They didn't have much time, so they stacked them all in a giant pile. Since they weren't built super pro like the first tower, it took a lot longer to burn. Chris took the chance to test out our new camera, and got a lot of cool shots.

You wouldn't believe how hot it was. I was worried about singing my eyelashes and I was standing well over 80 feet away. Chris took a pass way close. He had to run fast... it was very hot.

There were firemen watching the whole time. Luckily they didn't have to take action. But they sure could get a lot closer than anyone else. Good shot though right? Chris caught a lot of great shots.
