Just to scare you

Well, this post is made special for all those grandmas and grandpas out there. Thought you may enjoy (in the "I can't look, but I can't look away" kind of way) a few pics of the kids' favorite thing to do here in Lipa. Steve got a motorcycle soon after arriving here, and it has been great for getting around town and avoiding the traffic. Steve has also discovered though that it really relaxes him to ride around the motorcross track near our house. That is one thing, but he took the kids slowly around the track and they decided they love it - all 3 of them! Don't worry - they always wear protective gear - you can see Steve testing out Zach's here.

Their favorite part of the course is this jump in the front. As you can see, they are not exactly flying through the air, but it is still a blast for the kids. Ben doesn't look like he can see very well though out of the new helmet...
Headed off into the wilderness with Dad on the motorbike. Great Daddy bonding time.
All geared up and ready to go. The safety strap keeps the kid close to Steve so they can't bounce off or something.Here's Steve jumping without the kids. He goes a little higher when he's alone. This was the 1st time I took a pic though, and it was ironic cuz the bike died mid-air just after he went airborn. So Steve wiped it at the foot of the hill - right at my feet! Because of all his protective gear, he was just fine though - and so was the bike!
This is not my personal favorite sport for my husband - and kids! - to participate in, but they all absolutely love it, and Steve really is careful and goes slowly - especially with the kids. And while he has had one muffler burn from wearing shorts while riding, he assures me that he won't try anything crazy (and now he always wears jeans...). And I am glad that he has found something that can relax him on a tough day of language, and it is great too for he and the kids to have this special activity to share.
