Lowe's Grave Digger Monster Truck Build

Today we took the boys to a Lowe's Build and Grow event. This one, build a Grave Digger Monster Truck!! They were very excited to build their own truck. We weren't sure what to expect but it was really fun. Cole and Eli both did great hammering nails in their trucks and putting stickers on to finish it off. Mommy didn't do too well as I had Eli hammer in too many nails and messed up a step. Daddy tried to come to our rescue but in the end, we had to get another truck and start over. Eli was not happy with me but it all turned out ok. 

Before the build
Serious business with safety glasses! 
Cole-the tool man
He kept wanting to put stickers on the wheels first. 
Eli did great with his hammering
I just love the look on Cole's face as he watches Eli. 
Notice Tim's puzzled look....um yeah, he was trying to figure out how to correct my mistake. 
Happy Little Builder!
2nd attempt - this time without Mommy's mistake
All Done! 
Taking them for a test drive. 
So awesome! They got builder certificates, a patch and a work apron. Mommy just has to iron on the patches. 
Post build picnic - wonder what the guys would say if I did this on the jobsite. =)
