One thing we were looking forward to about moving home was having a place to get out of town to, for the kids to run around a little. Terry grew up on a ranch outside of Sturgis, SD and knew nothing of neighborhood wanderings and the trouble that ensues, etc. So last weekend we went for a ranch visit to see Terry's family and mom for a late Mother's Day.
We brought the kids' bikes and rode a half mile down to the creek. Terry cheated and took his old motorcycle. Evie is learning on her Strider. She did do pretty good but she's not extremely into it yet. I hope she catches on because the kids I've seen on these things are fast and look like they have a blast.
Throwing rocks into the creek. And enjoying the peace and quiet. And wind...
...and then they fell in. Kidding of course.
Snap did get his feet wet though. He loves it on the ranch. I'm thinking about leaving him out there so I can get a cat. Hehe
The kids and I enjoyed rides on the motorcycle with Terry. And I must say, it was certainly nice not to have to live at the ranch for a week like we used to when we visited. Now we are able to go "home" to our own place and space.
