Grant finally graduated to the next size of dirt bike, so we handed down his old one to Jacob. We took the boys out to the track on Monday during Spring Break and it was Jacob's first time out there and only his second time on the bike, since he rode it around the yard once. He did awesome!
Grant looks so little in this picture. It reminds me of when he was 3!
Here are the boys out riding together around the track. Grant was a great teacher, leading Jacob around and giving him tips!
Grant looks so little on his bike until you get Jacob right next to him on the smaller bike!
I was messing around with my new camera, taking action shots and got this one of Grant that makes it look like he's ZOOMING! Really he wasn't going that fast.
Here are the kids getting ready to ride. Love Jacob's face! Lottie was excited to watch and can't wait to get her own bike someday!
Jared got out there and rode with the boys a little bit too.
Here's Jacob's response when I asked him how he liked riding dirt bikes!
No idea what everyone was looking at, maybe another rider, but they all looked in the same direction just as I snapped this picure!
One of the highlights of our day was Jacob grabbing a fistful of throttle on his way out to ride the 'big' track through the trees with Grant. Can't get that video to load though. You'll have to see it on Facebook! This video is Jacob's first time down the straightaway at the track. My new camera took some getting used to, hence the skipping. But he did well!

Jared, Jen, Grant, Jacob & Lottie live in a little (and we DO mean little) town in Kansas. Having never planned to or even thought about living in Kansas prior to moving here, we didn't know how we'd adjust. Jared and Jen lived in Utah before moving to Kansas in 2004, so we really miss those mountains. Grant was born in 2005, Jacob joined our family in 2007, and our most recent addition is Lottie, born in 2009. We love to spend time together. Since moving to Kansas, Jared and Jen renovated the house they live in (almost entirely, both inside and out). We love to garden during the summer and spend time outside in general, whether it's taking walks or going to the playground. Biking is our preferred method of recreating, but we don't get as many opportunities to do that as we used to. Welcome to our web journal. We hope our friends and family enjoy the news, pictures and video clips of our life, since we live too far away to visit you very often.
