Trent's Day....

Last Saturday, Trent participated in the AWANA Games at Comstock Park HS.
For those of you not familiar with AWANA..it's a Wednesday night church program.  This particular event is where area churches compete with other AWANA programs.  They compete around a circle in very specific games.  Trent also competed last year. It's for 3-6th graders.  Here he is sitting with his team waiting for the events to start.... 
preparing to play in the Bean Bag Swap 
getting ready to run the Sprint Relay...that's 3 laps by a 3rd or 4th grader..one heat.
I was biting my nails off..so nervous for him! 


the photo finish...
he actually took 3rd...but just by a bit did #2 beat him (coming from a mom!!!) 

4 way tug 


Balloon Relay
he's so cute!! 
all their hard work and perseverance paid off...
they brought home a first place!!! 
Trent and his metal.... 

Then at night we had Upward Basketball closing ceremonies...here he is with his team & coach.

The one good picture I got during all his games

He's got the Life....

Trent's birthday was in February...but his birthday keeps on giving!
One of his gifts, from his Grandparents, were tickets to the...Thunder Nationals...Monster Jam Monster Truck Show.  That's important stuff to a 10 year old boy!!
The nice boy he is....he let Steve & I go with him..isn't he sweet...or does he know who will by him snacks? 
right on the finish line!
little happy with the shutter!

and every boy needs a sword from the Monster Truck show...hahaha!
Donut competition
Here is High Maintenance....the only girl driver.
She wiped a donut like nobodies business...round and round and round and round and round ....
and then she shot confetti and glitter out of the back
Graver Digger had his 30th anniversary this year....he tried to beat her-he really did...that is until he blew his engine...BAM...he's done for the night..RIP Grave Digger!!  Pretty sure GD was 'suppose' to win this competition!
Oh and did I mention the the only girl driver won the donut competition?  Oh and did I mention that she won the Freestyle too?  Did I say she was a girl?
We had a fun time with Trent..he such a fun kid!
