Planes, Trains, and Tricycles

Over the last few days the kids have test driven all their vehicles.  First, it was their Jeep. Then they gave their scooters a whirl. Tonight, we made it a trio by bringing out the bicycles (or tricycles for those under 3 years old)...

Ev's feet baaaaarely reach the pedals, but he gave it all he had.

Amelia remained unphotographed because she was too fast to capture on camera. 

Tooters

Amelia and Everett went for a leisurely ride on their scooters, or "tooters", as Everett calls them...

Licensed to Drive

The kids are practicing for their driver's exams. They will be here before you know it.

Lunch Date

If you had better looking lunch dates than I did today, you'd be very lucky and I'd be very surprised...

Strawberry Patch

We had a great day at the strawberry patch. Then again, when you have funnel cakes, face painting, and frozen strawberry drinks...pretty much any day is great...

Farm Life

Just in case any of you were starting to think it was all play while on the farm....



an honest day's work.....

Kids

Two thoughts - 

1) I miss my kids far more than they miss me.

2) Anyone who doesn't have kids should borrow two kids for a week or so. That way, they will gain an appreciation for the amount of free time they have. I certainly didn't realize it before I had kids, but childless people should be able to solve all the world's problems and complete their entire bucket list over and over again. You know how you can't really appreciate food unless you've gone to bed hungry? Well, you can't really appreciate free time until tiny little people command every second of yours.
