Christmas Day Competitions

if you know me {or any boyer for that matter} you know that we are always up for some competition. the lamer, the better.

on christmas day when the little girls {who are really the big girls now} showed up with these landsharks...well it was only natural that the competitions began.

we raced a few laps around my parent's walkways...bailing every time on the corners.

then we headed to the streets. all participants felt confident and the trash talk ensued.

what started as this:

race #1: husband vs. wife {by the way, scot really does not enjoy these antics of mine}

resulted in this.

there was only one other race to follow & then we all wussed out.

lesson learned: kneeling on one knee & pedaling with the other leg distributes all your weight onto one side of the landshark...add the bumpy road & well i was a goner. for the record, it was an awesome fall...you know a few skips & a roll...a goody.

i don't think i've been laughed at so hard for a long time. oh wait...nevermind.

We might need to bring those out at another family gathering when everyone is present. . . I'd like to see you bail in person! :)
