Second annual Trike-a-thon

Last Friday the kids had a Trike-a-thon at school. In the middle of all the preparations for Jeana's wedding it was kind of nice to just go watch them ride bikes for a couple of hours. Don and I figured Taylor would last about 5 minutes and then come tell us that she needed a break because she was too tired, but.....she actually rode for at least an hour, she did so great and was absolutely exhausted. Trevor was the star of his class last year and this year he didn't disappoint! We brought 2 bikes for him, one with training wheels and one without. He of course wanted to ride the one without but I was a little nervous of that because there were so many kids and I didn't want him to crash into them. Don said he would follow him around and make sure he was ok, so we let him. Wouldn't you know it.......he did fantastic!! He barely needed any help and just maneuvered that bike so well and was even able to start and stop himself when needed. Needless to say he was the only kid in his class on a 2 wheel bike and mommy and daddy were very proud!!!!


Here is a picture of Abby throwing a fit, although I missed the head being thrown back. I'm pretty sure she was upset because she couldn't ride a bike or that her mom wouldn't let her run in the street!
Ruby on her tricycle! Her mom was also very impressed, she was hoping for one lap and she did three!!!! Although, she had just gotten done with ballet so I'm sure she was exhausted.

Taylor riding her bike.

Trevor's cheesy smile.

The grand finale.......
