sand in the city

today we went down to olympia for the sand in the city festival... this is the first time we had gone to it so we brought along some good friends(the grants and the fears) to show us around... the festival is centered around large sand sculptures made/sponsored by various local businesses... weather was good so we ventured in...

last week at football practice... noahs coach... dave, told the kids that he was doing another sculpture this year... after practice, noah and i decided we needed to go see what he was going to make...

to all of our surprise and viewing pleasure... we found a pooh bear and friends scene that rivaled any sand sculpture we had ever seen... and then... as we were about to walk away... we saw this...

noahs coach had won first prize... again...(last year he did a peanuts of the carribean, peanuts characters in a pirates boat)(that also won first prize) congrats coach dave... we can now only hope that this football season will be so successful...
