This and That

We decided to make a weekend road trip back on Labor Day to see Brad's family. We were traveling to his sister's home and made a stop to pick up grandma,so she could ride with us. We had a great time just hanging out and playing in the swimming pool. On the return trip,when we took grandma home, the kids begged grandpa for a ride on his new scooter. They were full of smiles as they rode up and down the street. Nolan was big enough to ride be himself and quickly got the hang of the scooter (maybe a scooter might be his future mode of transportation?). ...and everybody knows that Brad had to take a turn at it...he thinks a motorcycle would be more fun.
We enjoyed our weekend, but the new week brought even more school work. We have spent the week studying hard and getting our house back in order after all the summer travels. It sure makes for a quick week...

Levi was grinning from the minute he got on the scooter. He laughed and laughed. Don't you just love that grin?!
Nate was a bit apprehensive, but he didn't want to miss out.

It wasn't so bad...Mia was all smiles...(remember, she is my "biker babe")Garrett is ready to ride... Nolan looks pretty comfortable... he's gonna want one... Brad taking his turn... "Let's get a motorcycle..." Levi decided he needed to fix his cousins hair(after swimming). He brushed and upswept, and he even named his hair design..."the Dolphin".

Nolan is "perfecting" his back flip off the diving board

"Cousining" around the swimming pool...

Levi is contemplating his next dive... a front flip,maybe?

Elvis is trying to decide if he wants to swim again. He made a dive in the pool earlier...loved the swimming,but...he got a bit frightened trying to find his way out of the pool.
