What a nice Sunday.. It was well deserved after the amount of rain we got on Saturday. We went to the lake and Griffin played outside with his good buddy, Joe on their tractors and tricycles. They are replacing the bridge over the lake so every time we go there we have to walk up and see the progress they are making and of course the heavy equipment.
Griffin was all excited that the Fire Truck was visiting his school. It is Fire Prevention week at school and they met the local firemen and learned all about their firetruck. Griffin has been having a great week at school.
Griffin got a new bike from his grammie and poppa for his birthday. He still prefers his tricycle because it is familiar and he can pedal backwards plus he has the pedalling mastered. he is about an inch too short for his new bike but he will get there. We call it his dirt bike because it is like Travis Pastrana's dirtbike, who he thinks is really cool. Here is a video of his first ride, I must warn you it is not the best. You will also notice his new trait, whining, it is a result of his being overtired. He doesn't get to nap as long as he needs at his new school. And bedtime is now a three ring circus act every night. We are trying to play catch up on the weekends with longer naptimes, letting him sleep in and early bedtimes but he isn't quite caught up yet. Starting to think that it is a never ending battle.
This was taken at the Cumberland Fair, we went to see the Rave X snowmobile show. The riders do tricks off of a big dirt and woodchip pile, it is pretty crazy. Griffin and Joe Loved it, of course.
Here are some pictures I have been harboring from our trip to Plymouth State. So many things have changed at Plymouth, but it still has that homey feel to it. It brought back so many good memories. We made a stop on the way home to see some friends at Newfound Lake. It is so beautiful this time of year.
Some pictures from Levi and Joe's Birthday parties. The boys had a great time playing together. All Joe wanted for his birthday was to play with Griffin and Levi and a Bike, I thought that was so cute.
