Fun With New Toys

After receiving too much stuff for Christmas, we took the boys out to try out some outside toys last Saturday afternoon. Aaron and Caleb wore their little legs out pedaling their new bikes. (Jonathan didn't want to take his because he thinks it's too big.) It won't be long before Aaron's ready to take his training wheels off! Yay, Aaron! Caleb still has a hard time keeping his bike going. Every now and then, he'll accidentally pedal it backwards, causing the bike to suddenly stop, which, in turn, causes him to get very very frustrated. And when he gets frustrated, everyone knows it!

As they rode all over the place, and as I followed closely after, Jeff and Jonathan piloted Jonathan's new remote control airplane (compliments of my sister, Dana). Jonathan's very proud of his plane that can fly "up to 300 feet," and was extremely upset when his dad flew it into a nearby neighborhood and nearly lost it. But, thankfully, the MIA plane was successfully recovered and returned.

After a few scrapes and bruises, both to the plane and to Caleb, we loaded up and headed home, already looking forward to our next outing.
