Our neighborhood held its first annual soapbox derby last Saturday. A couple weekends ago, Jess and the boys began construction on team "Double-Dare Davises" car.
Eliza wanted in on the power tool action.
The boys take it for a test spin, with Eliza as their hood ornament.
The following weekend, Ben and Noah gave the car a custom paint job. (Before heading out camping. Is Jess campaigning for Dad of the Year?)
Our final derby car!
Race day with our good friends, Sawyer and Jackson.
The super-cool Lightning Lees!

The super-cool Lightning Lees!(Yes, that's a hollowed out log. And yes, they won in the creative category.)
Team 3-D fanclub.
Cutest cheerleader ever.
It was awesome that Aunt Julie and Grandpa came to watch the big race.
Getting ready at the starting line.
And they're off!
So, we didn't break any speed records, but we had the BEST time. Can't wait to do it again next year!
