Pure Bliss!

There are many advantages to being a middle child. One of those are the many clothes and toys we inherit as my older siblings kids grow out of clothes or become to old for certain toys. My sister Miriam gave this little 4 wheeler to Christian for his birthday, she has had it in her basement for awhile because her kids are too big for it (well, her kids are on to riding a 90 and a 200cc). We took a picture of it sitting on our front porch and gave it to Christian. He ran to the front door and was elated! The batteries had not been charged so he couldn't just hop on it and go. The next morning we tried the charged batteries to no avail, we had to order new ones and wait for them to arrive. The shipping said they would arrive around the 22nd so when they showed up on Friday we were so excited. We had to call Dan at work and Christian was just in a panic, "Dad the batteries are HERE!!!" And then we tried the batteries to see if they needed to be charged, Christian pressed on the gas pedal and off it shot. Then we had to call Dan again, Christian was giggling and could barely talk he was so excited. The crappy thing was that the weather had been awful. Dan came home from work and it had stopped raining so he bundled up Christian and off they went to give the 4 wheeler a go. Christian of course loved it and handled it really well. I have a feeling we will spend many a day and evening on this thing this year, as soon as the weather will cooperate with us.
