Stephen realized a dream of his by participating in a pie-eating contest at our ward picnic. For a kid who has never done this before, he certainly had his winning technique down cold as the competition began. Nobody even came close - Stephen was the only participant who actually finished the entire Chocolate Cream pie.

Stephen posed with the second and third place winners and then proceeded to eat a hamburger and hotdog at the picnic. I wish we could turn his appetite and ability to eat quickly into a career.
