Biker Gang!

Yes, we now have a biker gang in the neighborhood! A few weeks ago, Han decided she was ready to ride her bike without training wheels. After a couple of afternoons of dad sweating and Han wrecking she had the hang of it and has never looked back.

Now that is a biker princess!

Hud, didn't like being out-done by his sister...and though he didn't really want to...decided to ditch the training wheels and give it a go, too. After a few good wrecks and a lot of panting from dad, he was off as well.

Wanna ride?

And you guessed it! Josh thinks he can do whatever Hud and Han do. Pictures don't do it justice but at 3.5 on this little bike, he is quite a site! Folks in the neighborhood are pretty impressed with Hot Rod Josh! He's still not quite tall enough to get going by himself...but with a little push he is off and racing.

Isn't this the way Michael Jordan used to balance in the air with his tongue?

Stuntman Josh!

As you can imagine, the fearless Hot Rod has taken a few bumps and bruises as he masters his new stunts.

"Oh, my wurd! This doesn't look good."

"Hey, recovered and now I have the hang of it!"

"Need course correction!"


"Oooo, this is gonna hurt!"

"Dad didn't tell me I'd have to fly, too!"

"Mama!!!!!!!"

What the hail!

So, last week a little storm cloud came through our neighborhood and dumped a lot of rain and hail (pea to marble size). After the storm blew through Hud, Han, and Josh couldn't resist what was on the trampoline.

This frozen jump session only lasted about 3 minutes, then everyone was ready for a hot bath!
