Colt can ride a motorcycle--he's still 3!!!

I'll get to the motorcycle fun-and it is FUN! But I'll go in order. We survived family pictures round one... hopefully when we get them back there will be a good one! Here's some of the phone evidence...  
Here's how much Isaac enjoyed it... he tries his best to stay out of things, but at least he cooperates 😉
 We all went out to breakfast afterwards (the kids loved it but thats chaos!) we spared Isaac that party and sent him on a motorcycle ride with his brother. Phew! He needed that! And they had fun (complete with running out of gas and everything-of course) but Isaac came back dissatisfied with how my bike ran--it was really the first time anyone has tried to ride it hard at all--so it might be on the for sale list too. I said "that's fine you'll just buy me another one right?" And he said "exactly" so there ya have it. Buying  and selling motorcycles is his idea of fun so have fun hun! 
 
Random peach picture! 
Tanner and Grampa chip washed that picture nonsense down with some ice cream and a Rhino ride!
 
 Sunday we took the boys over to the temple. I wanted a picture of the boys in front of it...Colt was pretty put out with the idea-and the other two weren't exactly cooperative...
 
 
 
Isaac ended up packing Cannon on his shoulders...I suggested it for Tanner-you can see how it ended up! I did talk them into a picture on the stairs with the promise that Cannon could take a picture of the temple after--deal! He took the one below! 
 
Sunday night the boys had a late night with there cousins! It was going to be a sleepover but Colt didn't make it and as soon as I was going to get Colt, Cannon decided coming home with me sounded like a good idea. I'm anti sleepover anyway (I'll make exceptions for cousins though) so I was good with it. Cannon wanted me to take him right back up to Uncle Klints at 6:30 the next morning though-no way! 
Monday we back up to Emery County, and we play pretty hard here! Isaac finished up his test, I finished up my class, we're free to have a good time now!
We picked up the Motorcycles from Nate and Melanie's -along with Isaac's electric skateboard, Grandpa Ison has a new little electric scooter someone gave him. We are in ride ride ride mode!!!
      
 
 
Then there's the inside toys--Grandma busted out the legos, the boys played for HOURS! And these cars--they're miserable to step on but loads of fun! Tanner doesn't have pants on because he dumped a whole gallon jug of water all over them AND Grandma's floor! 
 
 
Wednesday night we went camping. It was really fun to get up in the mountains, living so far away it's so fun to come home that we are slow to leave once we're here but Joe's Valley was beautiful! I'd never been there but it reminded me so much of Panguitch Lake and all the time we spent there growing up. It was great. So the plan was to go to some friends of Grandmas property that is somewhat developed. (Flush Toliets, running water-always good to sell me on) Well if you're going camping, you want Grandma Ison to come!!! She is a worker bee and she doesn't stop, and she thinks of all kinds of things that never would have crossed my mind! But, you probably don't want Grandma to be the only one who "knows where" we were going. We drove all over that mountain! Poor Grandma was so "flusterated" (that's her word not mine-but I smiled because my Grama used to always say that) I was just laughing, it was like comedy of errors! I seriously don't know when I've laughed so hard with Isaacs family! As it turned we found a nice -non developed- place to camp. And by the time we ate our tin foil dinners the boys pretty much just ate them up. No complaints, (only because I didn't make them eat the carrots) but it was still that nice. We rode motorcycles and the side by side, had a campfire, got super dirty, slept in a tent. The boys loved it! We all had a good time! 
 
    
 
That last one is me documenting the fact that the DOG is on Grandma's lap as we all went for a night ride spotlighting. At least I'm smiling! The next morning we ate breakfast (Isaac tinkered with the motorcycle-of course) and we went for another ride. 
 
 
    
Cannon had two little wrecks...well probably his two biggest wrecks he said "It was face first mom!" As opposed to just tipping sideways but he got his hands out and we was fine (a little shaken) but he is doing SO GOOD on the motorcycle! He's awesome! (I'm pretty sure he's better than me-again.) 
  
Grandpa wasn't scared of the washed out road!
 
  
We tuckered'm out!!
 
 
Colts been ready to ride that little motorcycle since he passed off the pedal bike, but we decided our camping probably wasn't the best place to learn (but he was ready) so when we got home from camping we took on that project! 
He wanted us to run on each side 😜 I got tired fast--soooo out of shape-- but He did awesome!!! 
 
    
 
He's too little to stop so Isaac has to help but, they're too cute! Isaac has a lot of jobs with us having a lot of fun, but he's a sport about it!
 
 
  
(That's Isaac's engine revving up in the 2nd video-not Colts 😉)
Too many pics but that's just part of having too much fun!
