Within the last month we bought Conner a motorcycle. Conner has talked about these for a long time. We would always tell him when he learned to ride his bicycle without training wheels and when he turned five that we could get one. Conner thought he would be able to hop on it and do pop-a-wheelies, but discovered that it was a little harder than he thought it was going to be. Haylee of course jumped right on it and rode around the house with a huge smile on her face. Jay has decided that Haylee needs a bigger motorcycle for herself since she is so good at it.
Over Labor Day weekend we went camping with Avery and Tristin to Cinnamon Creek. It was a fun, relaxing time. A little eating, reading, fishing, and rhino riding. Even though we try really hard, it never goes as smooth as we would like. To start off the trip, Jay got the combination to the gate from his mom. She gave him three different combinations and told him that it was one of them. Of course none of the three would work. With no cell phone service, and no way to turn around, Jay hopped onto Conner's motorcycle with a flashlight in his mouth (it doesn't have any headlights) and drove up into the camp spots to see if he could get the right combination from someone. I'm sure that the guy who gave Jay the comb thought he was crazy, but oh well. At least we got through the gate. The weather was good for Saturday and most of Sunday but then it started raining as we were getting dinner ready. We decided to head home after dinner instead of staying tell Monday morning. Here is a picture of us trying out the hand carts.
Jay had to be cheesey for the camera
We also have two new additions to our animal family. Goats!!! Haylee is our animal lover and has named them Billy and Bob. These pictures are of her trying to fed them treats. The goat kept trying to head butt her hand. It was really funny.
