All the kids had fun playing with cousins







The big race - all the kids raced one at a time for timed trials around a circle that was a little over 1/4 mile.



Only one bike to share so some of the kids had to make due with a bike that was a little too small for them

Will decided to race on foot for time.

All the kids thought that would be fun too so they lined up and had a foot race around the circle



Even Julie tried out the bike



Luke got upset so Will took him for a ride around the circle

DISNEYLAND 2011
This year we surprised the kids and took them to Disneyland.We have been telling them when we get the credit card paid off and save up the money we could go and we did!! We put the kids in the van on Friday night and told them we were going for a ride, they started guessing where we were going like Hawaii, New York, England, Grandpa and Grandma Farr's.We stayed in St George and then woke up and made it to the condo that we stayed in( it was so nice couldn't ask for better). We were waiting and my mom and dad pulled up in a mustang convertible and the kids ran up and started jumping up and down. We were so LUCKY to have Grandpa and Grandma Holden to come with us. They pretty much went on EVERY ride. They made the trip and it was so nice to have the extra help. We then went to the beach and then the store to get food for the week. When we were all in and everything put away we asked them what they wanted to do. We gave them some ideas and the last one was Disneyland. They really didn't get it till the next day when we got there. They kept saying THANK YOU. We had the BEST time and cant wait to go back!!! The warm sunshine was needed and loved!! We got swim go to the beach, Disneyland, California adventure and relax. I'm still slow and didn't put them in order, one day i will figure it out, I hope.(Hehehe)
