Fields of Green.. and Red?

This afternoon, Dad, Zach and I took a ride in Thunderpig.. It was an amazing day with hardly a single cloud in the sky. We pulled off the side of the road and snapped a few pictures of the truck with nothing but fields of green and Mt Timpanogos in the background.  We had a great drive and I couldn't have asked for a better time.

Thanksgiving Point UVU Car Show 2012

Today was the UVU car show at Thanksgiving Point. My Dad and I have been looking forward to this show all year because last year we entered ThunderPig before the truck was finished and one of the judges told us that if it would have been finished we would have won an award!!!  Oh that hurt.  So this year we made sure we were ready!! 

My Dad came to Utah to help me out with the show. We arrived at Thanksgiving Point at 6am to snag a primo spot at the show near the main pavilion. Then we finished shining the truck. It looked great!



My son is such a ladies man. I told him to go stand in front of this Camaro for a quick picture while there was no crowd and he said "Can I take a picture with her?" LOL.. The car was at an airbrushing booth, and the girl at the booth overheard his request and of course ran right over and stood next to him. I was laughing pretty hard.

We even saw batman at the show! I told Zach he could go take a picture with him too and he said "No".  He absolutely loves Batman.. So I'm not sure why he wouldn't stand next to him, but we definitely spent a lot of time checking out his ride!  :-)


Zach also entered a coloring contest.. He ended up taking 2nd place, but only because the entry submitted by the winner had a bit of help by a parent.. Either that or somewhere out there is a 4year old Picaso. heh heh..

After walking around the show we went back and Zach helped me polish the truck some more...

Great job Zach! He's a great helper and loves to go to the shows with us.


After a long day, it was nice to relax with Zach and Grandpa while we wait for the judging.

And the votes are in and we won!!!!!!! The Thanksgiving Point UVU show gives out jackets instead of trophies and we won a sponsors jacket!  Wear it proud Dad! :-)
