Family fun
group activities to me have always meant playing Sorry, or swimming, or playing water polo, or reading scriptures (I was raised Mormon). But for the Plaizier family, fun means drag racing.
Papa Plaizier, a legendary Funny Car driver, is joined this year by daughter
Ashley, while sisters Brittany and Courtney compete in a different class within the same sport.
Shared family activities are sometimes difficult to cultivate, and when your kids are young (too young really yet for organized sports) it's hard to imagine the day when you'll be cheering on the sidelines of a soccer game. But stories like this give me hope (and something to look forward to.)
