Tonight for family home evening we took the motorcycles out and went for a ride as a family. The kids were so excited. They couldn't wait for dad to get the motorcycles out of the truck.
Kamryn was the first to get on his bike. And then he was gone! He is getting to be such a good rider. He rode with his dad on the track. He did great. He amazes me.
Derek was excited to ride too. He is doing very well too. Most of the time he just putted around in the flat area by the truck, but after everyone else had left, he went over to the track too. He took it slow, and just rolled over the jumps, but he did great. 
Brynli decided that she wanted to try and ride the motorcycle today (she has never wanted to try before). She started off chasing Derek around.
Then she came back to the truck pouting, because Derek wouldn't let her have a turn.
So dad taught her how to ride the motorcycle.
At first he followed her to make sure she was doing o.k.
Then she got it down and was doing great by herself. The bike was kind of heavy for her, so when she would stop to give Derek a turn, the bike would usually fall over. She couldn't hold it up by herself. She started doing better toward the end of the night. Brynli and Derek did a great job of sharing the motorcycle. Brynli did awesome for her first ride.
Sadie had a great time playing in the back of dad's truck and watching the kids ride motorcycles. Then she decided that she wanted a ride with dad on his motorcycle. Dad took her on a short ride around the track.
I guess she didn't like the hills very much. She came back screaming. It didn't take her long to get over it and ask for another ride. She had a lot of fun just playing in the truck.
Oh, there's Kamryn again. I really didn't see him much. He just kept riding around the track. He had to take advantage of what daylight there was.
Wyatt even let me take a ride on his motorcycle. It was a lot of fun. For having a motorcycle in our family for 12 years, you would think that I would be a better rider.
After the sun went down we barbecued hotdogs in the back of the truck and ate dinner. We really had a great time. It is so fun spending time together as a family!

what a fun FHE. Looks like the kids are taking after their dad in their love for motorcycles.
I think Broc would love to come to your FHE. Your family is always doing such fun things together. See you this weekend!!!!
how fun! We have a motorcycle too & one of our favorite things to do is go up to the canyon & ride. It's funny, I didn't like motorcycles until after I married Steve. Now I think they are so much fun!

Looks like fun!! My kids (girls included) beg for motorcycles. I'll have to show Dean your blog and let him see how much fun your kids have on them.
That looks like a lot of fun! The kids are just getting too big! What a fun FHE. We look forward to seeing you soon. We love you!!!!
We should go ride together. Tim is always looking for someone to ride with.
So much fun! I bet in those 12 years you've spent more time being a mommy then riding? I'm glad he let you have a turn this time!
