The Poker Run

Everyone loaded up early this morning and headed out to the annual motorcycle Poker Run. All the kids "earned" a trophy just for being there - (well, that and their parents paying a lofty entrance fee!)
The kids all did great!

Spring motorcycling

The "boys" went down south for a ride today - taking advantage of a mild day! As usual, they had a great time!

The boy's favorite thing

What boy does not have the dream of tearing around on motorcycles all day long?? Ok, I know more than a few that DON'T think that would be fun... but my two... well... they really dig it!

Right before New Years, some good friends of ours, their sons, and the hubby and the boys went about an hour south of here and enjoyed riding in the "desert"! It is a great place - wide open with some hills to climb, room to whip around, and of course some jumps!

The really GREAT thing about motorcycles is the fact that if the boys are both on the bikes - they leave each other alone (for the most part)... no fighting, very little bickering - and it makes it alot harder for them to get in trouble! Since I usually do not go on these events, the hubby gets the more fun activity (while I get a much quieter house and alot of Princess time!) of having to keep those boys in line!

While it CAN be dangerous (Big Al came home with a shiner and a little roughed up).. it is a great thing for these two to be able to burn off some energy - while both getting to spend some time with old friends.

Hopefully, they both can keep their behavior in line for the next trip!!

Weekend fun!

Thank Heavens for nice weather this weekend! The boys got in some motorcycle time, and Miss O got some time in the uhhhh.. wheelbarrow?? She just loves being hauled around! Must be her inner Princess coming out!

Some Dirty Fun!

The hubby took the boys for a short motorcycle ride up near the Wind Farm... after a rainy morning... it left all the boys a tad muddy!!! They did have a blast though!
