The Fun of the Sports Court

The boys have had a blast with the new court!!! They have frequently set it up with bits of wood to create a 'race course' . Austin is the starter guy, and the other boys are the racers.

Are You Ready!!

And They're Off!

They are all getting used to skateboarding, as most of them had not even tried it before.

Dane is Now Pretty Good -

Here He is Just Getting Used To It

Briton is getting good at pushing his bike around, and Cooper can ride is bike like a pro.

He even will take Austin's bike and ride that when he can! And he is only four! He was the first to ride a bike, with no training wheels, so young.

The next thing Ray had to do was build the lip on the court. This was so the water would not drain out in the winter time.

Ride 'em Cowboy!

I saw this glorious rocking horse when I was in a store recently. I saw it was marked down half price and I had always wanted a rocking horse for my kids, so I asked the guy if that was the best price he could give. He told me he would give me another ten percent off if I would take the floor model!! No kidding!! That would mean no building the thing!! We had to work hard to cram it in the back of my van, but it is wonderful!! It is big enough that our 8 year old can ride it comfortably. There are foot holds for different age levels, as well. Briton learned very quickly how to climb up on it and ride like a little cowboy. He is quite sweet how he pets the horse when he is riding. *smile*
