boys and their toys

the waupaca county atv challenge was on saturday in bear creek- i guess it's an annual event, and this year both kelvin and ted entered. the kids and i went for a couple of hours (make that a literal "couple"... two was enough for them this year!) to watch. we missed ted's event but saw kelvin's.


kelvin heading into the mud...
the kids in front of the safety fence were a hoot... there was this one girl (the one in the pink and white ball cap) who was obviously a veteran of the event and equally obviously influenced by the atmosphere. not real girly, to say the least. case in point? she got a good splattering of mud (which was the sole ambition of all the kids, it seemed) and this is what she said: "oh crap, i got mud! (pause, semi-genuine gasp) oh shoot, i have to be at a wedding this afternoon!!! (this was said with feigned horror) (slight pause...) eh, that's ok... i pretty up real good."
i laughed.
hard.
uncle ted... he took home a 2nd place trophy. way to go ted!!

toothpaste first, THEN kiss, thankyouverymuch.

his face says it all...
way to go, guys!!
