At the races
















Late in September Finn called me to ask my opinion about a potential "boy-only" outing... it involved cars traveling at high speeds, and junk food...but the catch was that we only had four tickets to share within a family of 8.  His concern  was that the girls of the family would feel slighted if the boys headed out without us, however after talking with the girls...we lined up an alternate plan that included shopping on Sunday, with the promise of the next special event going the girls' way, and the luxury of sleeping in! :)

After covering the bases and arranging an impromptu early morning collection of Philip, the boys were off to the Danish racing finals.  Finn was lucky enough to get four tickets to the races, with special behind-the-scenes priveledges to meet the drivers and check out the cars. They were even there to see an American Chevy win one of the races!  Yeah Chevy!  They came home tired and hungry, but their eyes still glow when they talk about it!
