"BOYS and their TOYS"...

Okay, so I guess with 3 boys I am in for 4-wheeling and motorcycling! Matt loves to ride motorcycles and yes we have a few. He has been asking ifI want to go on a "ride" with him and the boys and I keep turning him down. So, we planned to go on a "family" outing to ride the motorcycles. We went with another family that has 4 boys...the Munroe's and they have 4-wheelers. We had the trailer packed with four motorcycles (2 big and 2 small) and three 4-wheelers and some bikes and tricycles. The trailer was definitely a sight to see...talk about "boys and their toys." We didn't take our camera and I am bummed I don't have any pictures to show.
We went to four peaks about an hour away. There were several people out that day riding, but we went further on the trail, so we had a secluded spot. It was nice and flat so it was easy riding for the kiddos. I must say I had a lot of fun! I prefer the 4-wheelers over the motorcycle...but I did ride the small motorcycle. I took the boys on rides on the quads and they were loving every minute. Kline loved getting a ride or trying to ride the small quad by himself. Nathan loved riding the small motorcycle on his own...and he is good. He also loved riding the quad on his own. Tyson learned to ride the small motorcycle and is starting to get the hang of it. They all had a blast!! Yes, we were safe to always wear helmets. I must admit that I enjoyed the day out riding...and with 3 boys there will probably be more outings!

Hey your need to bring your bikes up here....we have 4-wheelers too and would love to go riding. Nate is thinking about getting himself another bike and Brady too...all of us can't fit on the 4-wheelers anymore! Better yet...just move up here so we can see you more!

I'm sure it won't be the last. I keep telling Mike to keep the dirtbike thing on the down-low around the boys. That is one thing that mommy doesn't really want them to get into as teenagers. But, I guess if it isn't that, it will be rock climbing or something else.....What a cool mom you are! I think the quads sound so much fun. But, I'm with you, motorcycles make me a little nervous.

Sounds like a blast. I would be holding my breath watching the boys riding but I guess boys will be boys! :)
