Motorcyle and the ALMOST no more motorcycle!!

We are heading to Utah in a couple days for a family reunion. I am wanting to use the truck to go see Todd, so dad decided to try and get the bike into the back of the truck since it will be being pulled behind the RV..... So this is the ramp dad made to do a test run to make sure we can get it in and out.
So Vanessa was given the camera to take pictures because I being the lucky daughter that I am got to help dad take the bike (the 700 POUND bike) up this extremely not so wide ramp.
We are doing it!!!
Almost there....
SUCCESS!!!! Yippie Sarah get to use the truck :)
Now we get to BACK it down the extremely not so wide ramp!!!
Dad ummm....its not centered and its kinda leaning your direction and close to the edge....
That was the last picture taken by mom because right after this we got a lil further down the ramp and the bike was getting really close to the edge. I pulled a lil too hard forgetting a 700 lb bike isn't just going to shift a lil for me, dad lost his footing and slipped and started to fall which then the bike starts rolling backwards, the 700 lb bike, so mom yells for Vanessa to come get the camera haha I reach up, thankfully I had been watching dad and figured out where the brake was and grabbed the brake to stop the bike from rolling backwards ONTO my dad and steady the bike till dad could get his footings back. Dad was so proud he had taught his daughter so well that the bike is the most important thing, sacrifice the body to save the bike. I have a really pretty couple of bruises on my arm from this fun test run :)

Prairie Days Parade

I really didn't want to take them to the parade, but they promised when we got home they would both shower WITHOUT complaining!!!! How could I say no to these 2 adorable faces (yes I know they totally take after ME)
Matthew loved the motorcycles and thought Papa should ride his the way these guys do and in the parade next year :)
Matthew and Vanessa diving for candy
Look at the pretty fire truck kids....HONK HONK!!!! Scare the freakin pee out of me....stupid fire truck haha
Matthew finally got brave and went for the candy!! Although they want all this candy and they never eat it....
I just loved the name so of course HAD to take a picture of it
He ran out into the middle of the road for a piece of candy...he was so proud of himself
Not too many parades do you have a mini van done as a cow AND have the horn sound like its mooing!!!! Oh and did I mention that it deposited lil surprises behind it even....
Proud America!!!
A few of Vanessa's friends were in the parade....Javier...HEY VANESSA!!!! Sure didn't take him long to pick her out of the crowd...he sure is a cutie!!
Another one of Vanessa's friends
Ok this lil boy was standing down from us. He was playing with this which looked like a paddle ball thingy except it had a BIG ball attached to it. He would take it and hit the ball on the ground as hard as he could and it would bounce up and hit him in the head every time. It was so cute...LOVE his red hair!!!
For the final picture of the parade was a dog training school. Yes they were showing off how SMART there dogs are...the whole time I just felt this lady looking at me saying...I know you have a dog who eats your shoes, has a pantie fetish and hides things from you...yet you haven't called us WHY??? Ummm....cause I know Snookums would get kicked out of your school within the first 5 minutes of being there....HAHAHA Good thing he's adorable
Did I mention that right as I was taking a picture of Troop 219 float, I click and SMACK!! Pegged right in the lip with a rapidly flying piece of candy, which somehow was not on the ground below me and ended up giving me a fat lip!!! They need to post warnings at these public events....PLEASE WEAR FACE SHIELDS AS THEY ARE GOING TO BE HURLING CANDY AT YOU AS HARD AS THEY POSSIBLY CAN!!! consider yourself warned....

Sunday fun and realising I'm getting OLD!!!!

The kids were having trouble getting the swing to swing (heaven forbid they push each other) so Papa drug a picnic table over for them to jump off of..... I think Vanessa was trying to get a running start to go higher!!!
Ok so we all know I'm a complete CHICKEN!!! Seriously I was so scared haha but Vanessa said mommy can't do it she's too scared, so of course I HAD to prove her wrong :) So I stood there trying to convincing myself to jump....took a few minutes....
Finally jumped, I swear I was going to hit my butt on the table, Snookums was there to cheer me on :)
So then I got my nerve back (for a few minutes) and told Sess we should go off together!!!! She looked at me like I was NUTS
This was try #2, first time ummm....table almost tipped over I jumped and Sess bailed on me
I proved I was a BRAVE mom :)
Then of course since mommy went with Sess, Matthew needed his turn....It took a lil convincing for him this would be fun and he wasn't going to DIE So he climbed up the front of me and sat facing me and screamed like a lil girl when I jumped :)
and then of course decided I was a cool mom :)
Then Sess thought it would be really fun to spin mommy
tighter and tighter
Sicker and sicker mommy got, yeah apparently when you get OLD your stomach doesn't hold up so well anymore!!! My kids laughed so hard at me
Matthew in his own world



We thought we should take a picture incase we had to call an ambulance so they could see how he landed haha :)
