We left for Colorado on Saturday. I ended up sitting in between these two to put out the recurring fires. Lainey, our content one, was happy to just do whatever. She was easy. Walker was under the impression that once we reached the airport in Dallas (DFW) we would automatically be in Colorado and see Emmy and Tuck. So, as you can imagine, every step until we actually arrived was a bit challenging. He is not patient and not content to do whatever. ;) Anyway, here's a shot of the two of them just before takeoff! :)
In the airport, Lainey spotted two military men. She immediately said to me, "Mom! Look! It's two Ghostbusters!" I think - at that moment - I experienced failure as a parent. We need to do some educating...about our soldiers...and the amazing sacrifices they make for our country.
Walker is washing the jeep with his water bottle...good luck, Buddy. :)
Big wheels rock. Period.
And yes...helmets. These kids go fast and far. Helmets are necessary!
Tuck invented a bungee-cord system of taking them up the hill. It worked well!
Walker helped draw the finish line. The rule goes, as soon as you cross the finish line, you have to put on your brakes (feet down). Lainey even drew stick figures to help define boundaries. If you touched a stick figure, you lost. It actually was helpful because these kids went SO fast...we were afraid they were gonna roll down the hill!
the hill
Walker considered each trip down the hill a race.
And a couple of videos for your viewing pleasure...
