Kub Kar Rally and Kindergarten Supper

Saturday was a very busy day...it started at 7am when Myrna and I left for Fort Macleod to set up for our annual Stake Kub Kar Rally.  This year we decorated more than we have in the past and it turned out great...we even got compliments from some men!!!!! We kept with a race car theme.  Jared made us blocks and spray painted them black for our checkered flags!!! We fed the boys and their dads lunch of ham buns and chips with a cookie bar for dessert!!! 

The boys seemed to have such a good time! Each car got to race at least 8 times before we got to the elimination round!! Two cars came in as the fastest and we had many tie breakers to determine which really was the fastest!!! Finally a winner was determined and the trophies were given out!!! Each boy also got a Kub Kar badge!!! It was so much fun and went off without a hitch again!!! We quickly cleaned up and headed home only to find me packing up our van and heading into the hall to help set up for the kindergarten supper!!!!

It too was so much fun and it really couldn't have gone better.  The decorations were simple and festive for a sweetheart supper.  There were many auction items donated by community businesses and it was well attended by the families of kindergarten students and other community members.  The food was amazing, thanks to the mom of one of the kindergarten kids...she did prime rib and mashed potatoes, veggies and salads. One in particular was very yummy...an apple, pear, cucumber and onion with an dill vinigarette dressing!!!! We had punch to drink and coffee...both which I made and surprisingly the coffee turned out to be very good...surprisingly since I don't drink coffee to know how it should taste!!! I was in charge of the dessert and decided to do a cookie bar again, the parents really pulled through and helped bake cookies for me!!! We had such a great variety!!! I made chocolate chip and chocolate dipped sugar cookies. There were smartie cookies and snicker doodles, banana and triple chocolate and jam dots.  The kindergarten kids introduced themselves and told what they wanted to be when they grow up.  Armin has a real hard time saying police officer and after lots of practice at school he finally told his teacher he was just going to say "cop"!!! Which he did and he even got a laugh!!!!

It was well supported as usual... we really couldn't have the kindergarten we do without the support of such a wonderful community!!!
