Rain Gutter Regatta
Last week was the annual cub scout rain gutter regatta. This was Grayson's third and final regatta. He spent the week beforehand working on his boat, sanding and painting it until he thought it was perfect. He definitely had his own ideas and didn't ask for any help.
The event got off to a rough start for Grayson. He got three wasp bites before the races even started. He spent most of the time in the car crying and asking to go home, but we finally got him calmed down enough to participate. We knew he would be so disappointed later if he didn't get to race his boat.
In the end he only felt like racing it once, and then got distracted by the treats. After some cookies and brownies he perked right back up. But those darn bites did bother him for days after!

Ouch!! Poor guy! That looks like such a fun activity, though!
It was fun seeing how each boy decorated his boat. I still get a chuckle at Caleb's!
