GO KART FUN!!

A couple days ago we got a phone call from Jason telling us that he'd been searching online for a vehicle of some sort that the boys could drive around their back yard. He said the best one he'd found was located in Gridley, IL and he asked if we'd go check it out. So we called the number, didn't know the man but went and looked at it.

Now if you know anything about boys (of any age) . . . well, I could see the excitement in Jerry's eyes as soon as he saw the go cart. So we ended up getting it and delivered it late yesterday afternoon as a surprise to the boys. They knew we were bringing something, but not what we were bringing. They had to stay in the backyard while we unloaded it - THEN Janice drove it back to them!! She just took off like a pro!

The pictures will tell the rest of the story. Too bad this program only let me post 5 pictures.

Nice job Zac. Little rain water in the back yard splashed him a little - all the more fun!
You can tell Noah had a great time on his first drive-around.

Uh-oh -- getting a little dirtier each round . . .

oooooooo - could he really see where he was going?

That's enough for first night - clean-up time!
I think they loved the surprise their dad got for them. Actually Jason and Janice took their turns also and were almost as dirty as the boys! Miles will try at a later time. Janice's parents were there also and us old folks just watched -- such a fun evening! (I do hope these pictures will enlarge when you click them)
