First Race, no snow

So I have been running behind on blogging.  We went to our first sno cross race last weekend.  Cameron did well, taking second.  He did get hurt and this has severely affected his pride and performance.  Tienna has decided to join the racers this season.  We went out today and it was awful.  Both kids made it about an hour and then were done.  That is a long trip for practice.  The highlight of the trip was Kyle getting a speeding ticket.  Hehehe.  The whole rest of the day he whined about the speed being wrong.  Well of course it was when only  a half mile before he said whoa I need to slow down. At that point he was doing 80 in a 65, but of course the radar gun has a malfunction..  At dinner Tienna choked on a tomato.  That was traumatizing for me more than her.  We did introduce the kids to gambling.  It is amazing how lottery tickets can keep them occupied for hours.  The hardest part was explaining to them that even though their ticket won, they couldn't keep the money.  Well I will post more soon.  The next race is two weeks away.  Hopefully by then they can grow some dedication because this is too pricey to be a hobby.
