I don't think your girls could take a bad picture, or your wife, either, come to think of it. Such a lovely family.

Thanks! As long as I'm not in them that is true!

"Alana Ludlow and her mother, Emily, rode in a craft of two small cardboard boxes held together with duct tape. The boat, which had been decorated by mom, Alana, 4, and her 2-year-old sister, April, floated on just enough plastic bottles."

In the boat? Would have sunk much much faster.

I bet some chunks of styrofoam along the side would really help it float!

Nice job!
