Slappy Heads To The Ballet

Jess was gifted 3 tickets to the Ahmanson where the Scottish Ballet was performing, "A Streetcar named Desire."  It was Jess and Taisie's first time at the Ahmanson, but as the fam walked up Maddie was all, "Oh, I've been here before!"  (She came with camp to see a play).

Being very grownup, reading her program.  

We had been warned that the content was recommended for 15 and up.  At the end of the first act, her synopsis was, "Her whole family dies and they have sex."  She wasn't wrong, but did enjoy the entire thing.  It was a really great ballet.

Fountain time in Grand Park, post ballet.

The Scrapper Has A Pinewood Derby

Max requested a pickup truck hauling a tree.

And done, complete with Den 9 branding.

They received the award for Best Scout Theme.

Then it was over to go-kart racing for a father-son finish to the day.

Which was awesome until Max slammed into the wall and the day was called to a premature close.
