Today was Lillian's first Powder Puff Derby. Her troop participated this year along with another Service Unit. It was a lot of fun making the cars this year and learning about Powder Puff Derby and the rules. I think Rich was glad to be able to do something with the girls that was finally on his turf! :) Lydia was able to race too and that made it great. They both got a fun patch too!
Lillian and Lydia were out on the first round. The cars each raced three times. Rich discovered he put Lydia's weights on the wrong end after the race was complete. The car with the lowest points advanced to round two. But, Lillian's troop members (Annalise, Charlotte, Caroline and Kayden) all advanced to round 2. Annalise was winning every race in round two (they each raced the car three times again) and I was impressed. The other girls were flying too. But, after round two, then all Troop 5400 was out. We didn't make it to the final round. That is okay!
Lillian won a ribbon for Most Classic Design. It was funny because our cars were made from a kit! HA! But, it made her day and that is all that matters to me!
Powder Puff 2011 is over and now we are off to Lillian's second performance for her First Action Hero play. I could use a nap!
WAY TO GO TROOP 5400!!! I am so proud of all of you!
